摘要
自从联合国《儿童权利公约》实施以来,儿童尤其是生活在贫困家庭中的儿童受到越来越多的关注。美国虽是世界上经济发达国家,但其儿童贫困问题却远远比其他发达国家严重的多。美国对儿童贫困的官方界定起源于20世纪60年代,到目前为止几乎没有什么变化,已经严重不符合美国现实情况。基于此美国采用200%的贫困,即低收入来统计美国实际贫困儿童数量。研究表明,美国低收入家庭儿童数量不断增加,在原因分析的基础上,美国国家贫困儿童中心(NCCP)提出了解决当前儿童贫困的政策建议。
since the UN＂Convention on Rights of the Child＂,children,especially those living in the poverty received increasing attention. Even though US belongs to developed country,but his child poverty problems are more severe than other developed countries.The official child poverty line was established in 1960s,and seldom changed,which is not suitable for nowadays.The US introduced the low-income family children to study children living in poor family.Lots of studies showed that the children living in low-income family is increasing,on the basis of the reason,NCCP puts forward some policy recommendations.
