Description

The current conditions of childrearing are an issue of interest amid the increasing polarization of the economic foundation of childrearing families. In the present study, we investigated policy responses based on the life history of a mother and her child with regard to the reproduction of poverty. Analysis revealed an unbreakable chain of chronic poverty in which poverty during childhood was linked to poverty during adolescence and to poverty in single-mother households and poverty among women. The persistent effects of poverty during childhood and the associated link between poverty and isolation resulted in instability of family structure as well as lifestyle, and the broken family was suffered from a form of social exclusion. In order to solve the problem of poverty during childhood, it is necessary for the parents' generation to actively take measures against inequality of wealth, and to establish comprehensive support systems that cover education, welfare, medicine, housing, and labor. In addition, social work to prevent isolation of children at risk of poverty and empowerment to promote social integration were proposed as crucial perspectives.
