Abstract

The impact of socioeconomic status (SES) on children is among the most debated issues in human rights. By reviewing the literature, this study aims to identify socioeconomic mechanisms affecting children’s health. The child’s economic operations are influenced by adults. According to several studies, children from middle- and high-SES families, unlike low-SES children, have precise and logical policies, because their parents provide logical explanations in response to their children, and consequently, their children have more cultural capital. This is the family that gives the child sociolinguistic competences. This review study showed that growth rate, nutritional quality, mental health, academic performance, intelligence quotient, mortality rate, and accidents were associated with the economic status of parents, especially mothers. Therefore, it is necessary to implement training programs on proper nutrition, accident prevention, dental health, and psychological interventions for families with low SES.
