SUMMARY: Retired psychiatrist Dr. Gill Caradoc-Davies argues the term “child poverty” is misplaced. Children are by their nature “embedded” in their families, and to address child poverty it will be necessary for countries like New Zealand to address poverty in its entirety. To accomplish that, the author argues, a universal basic income is the best approach.
