If poorer families receive an extra £20 for their third and all subsequent children, will this reduce child poverty or encourage poorer families to have larger families!?!
These effects can last a lifetime - children growing up in poverty have worse health, worse exam results and, very frequently, will end their adult lives still in poverty. - Barnardo's chief executive Martin Narey.
The best way to reduce child poverty is to make children more expensive for poorer families!

i worked with two females both were single parents.
out of a workforce of 8 females those were the only two that arrived at work every day with an hang-over.
Both would brag about shopping at the local 24hr tesco's to tank themselves up.
Two ladies were pansioners and were paying double the tax of the previous two yet the older ladies were working to survive.
How did the extra money help their children at all?
