Question

childhood in the context of poverty and globalisation and explain it?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Child poverty refers to the state of children living in poverty and applies to children from poor families or orphans being raised with limited or, in some cases absent, state resources. Children that fail to meet the minimum acceptable standard of the nation where that child lives are said to be poor. In developing countries, these standards are lower and, when combined with the increased number of orphans, the effects are more extreme.

Answer 2

Childhood in context of poverty:

• Children and families living and growing up in poverty and low-income households experience many disadvantages. These can have negative health and social consequences during childhood and into adulthood.
• Poorer health and wellbeing : There are several ways in which living in poverty can lead to poorer health outcomes in children, as well as into adulthood.
• When considering health inequalities, children growing up in poverty or in the most deprived areas are at greater risk of poorer health outcomes than children from better off families or from more affluent areas.

Childhood in context of globalization:

• It is the globalization which has revolutionized lifestyles of children by giving them more avenues for learning, jobs and other amenities in life. Children have become more aware of the progress happening in and around the world due to the ease of access to internet and related technologies.
• Globalization has left a mark on all aspects ranging from clothing, food, mobility, communication, awareness, etc. Indian children are now more future ready, they are much more exposed to the latest developments of the world.
• However, the impact is not the same for children living below the poverty line who are still denied the basic amenities in life. The government of the land has directed many schemes for their welfare yet it is the implementation lag which causes of a heavy drag on the benefits.
