Financial crisis often comes from out of nowhere by way of job loss, health issues, or something as common as car repar. These emergencies cause stress and stan in an already stretched thin household income.

Families facing a crisis do what they can to pay bilis but come up short. Savings accounts get drained and friends and family help but the financial burden grows too large.

Types of Insecurities

Poverty really impacts the opportunity for children and their ability to participate in things at school.

Sometimes we like to thank conveniently of poverty as an individual problem when in fact many individuals end up in poverty through no fault of their own but because they were may be in wrong place at wrong time. Poverty just happens to be the condition that the people are living in and it is not a characteristic of individual.

Poor children are several times more likely than children who are never poor to spend half of their early adult years living below the poverty.

Many families are caught up in vicious circle that keeps them under poverty generation after generation.

I would like to invite three fellow Steemians also to perticipate @eveetim @daprado1999 @aprendeconkevin.

MOD's Observations/suggestions

Thank you for participating in the Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 17 in the Steem kids and parents Community.

Thank you for sharing your opinion on such a serious topic. Crisis mostly falls on middle class and poor families. Once the situation starts deteriorating, then the situation becomes difficult to control. To avoid this crisis, we should prepare a household budget by planning very carefully and invest the money accordingly.

Thank you for sharing your views on the serous issue and good wishes.

Economic hardship is what I will not desire for every family. I have seen cases where members of the family lost their lives due to the fact that they can't no longer cope with economic hardship

Greeting friend @impersonal, You point out that hard working families will do whatever they can to stay afloat and on top of the bills until they face a crisis that strains their budget which I think is correctYou also said that financial crises come from anywhere, from job losses, health issues or something as simple as car repairs, and you also mentioned that these emergencies put stress and strain on already stretched thin family incomes.I agree with you. agree I appreciate your presentation.
