Explain the relationship between poverty and children's developmental and educational outcomes
What will be an ideal response?
Factors associated with poverty have an impact on development and educational outcomes, with the main mediating factor being the stress families experience because of poverty. Stress impacts children's development and learning on an ongoing basis. In addition, children who are poor are more likely to grow up in households that provide less cognitive stimulation, and are also more likely to be raised by parents who have completed fewer years of education. These factors, in turn, impact children's cognitive development.
