Kids can live in poverty due to various reasons and circumstances. Children may live in poverty when their parents have not had the means to greater incomes. If parents have not developed skills and education required for some positions, then they may settle for a low paying job. However, there could also be cases of parents that do have skills and education needed for relatively good positions who still have difficulties with obtaining such positions. Factors that may be considered when establishing why a family lives in poverty include the following: location in which they reside, the state of the economy, the familyâ??s access to transportation, natural disasters, the familyâ??s financial history, the possible presence of crime, etc. In some cases, parents may not make the best financial or personal decisions. In other cases, there could be factors that seem out of the parentâ??s control that add challenge.In some cases, a single parent household may have a higher chance to thrive if the other parent had presented issues for the family that would have decreased the chances of one parent being successful and the stability of the household (as may be found if one parent becomes involved with crime or introduces other hardships); while in other cases, a household may be more stable and may have a greater chance of getting out of poverty and/or remaining middle class or above, if parents remain together. In some cases, it may be found that a cycle had developed; cycles that can increase the chances of one living in poverty may be found when the parents come from a generation that has also lived in poverty and factors such as crime that become an hindrance to prosperity a opposed to promoting prosperity. Overall, there are many factors and circumstances that can contribute to kids having to live in poverty and each individual case may have different sets of causes.
