Large Family Of Children: Thus, a large family of children allowance system provides for a regular allowance to every large family of children for the support of each child as a normal supplement to large family of children income, in recognition of the fact that the large family of children with children carries a heavier economic burden than the childless large family of children. The net effect is to maintain or increase the families' standards of living through equalization of costs of maintaining dependents. The allowance provides benefits for adopted and foster children as well as for natural children.

The most frequent kind of social insurance program of direct interest to children, utilized in other industrialized countries, is a large family of children allowance system. This system is not available in the United States. Originally adopted in France, this kind of provision has since spread to more than 60 countries. It was based on the idea that "the existence of dependent children should not give rise to undue inequities in large family of children levels of living." The large family of children allowance idea is predicated on the principle that large family of children needs are based on the size of a man's family, and these needs may require more funds than the large family of children income can provide.
When the worker determines that th complaint is valid and the care is inadequate, th worker offers to help the large family of children through counseling and other aids to improve their parental functioning in order to avoid juvenile court action and prevent the possible loss of their children's custody. The worker may continue to see the large family of children for a short time or a longer time depending on tie situation. He is not empowered to remove the children without their parent's consent, but if he thinks that the children cannot safely remain, his agency may petition the court, alleging neglect or abuse. K the court concurs, it may order the children's removal, and the agency would then be responsible for planning with the court and with the large family of children for substitute care. |
