That may be due to unemployment or issues such as sickness or disability that mean they can39。t work, and aren39。t required to. This is known as being in a long term workless family. The issues faced by children in workless families have very bad influence on their development and education, limiting their future employment prospects, and reducing their opportunities to succeed throughout their lives. Not only does worklessness reduce family ine, it can also damage families39。 health and stability, and thus destroy children39。s development. This is because many workless families are held back by disadvantages such as debt, drug and alcohol dependency, and by homelessness. Suffering from the family problems, many children face a greater and greater possibility of repeating the poor outes of their parents. Government research has shown that children in workless families are almost twice as likely not to reach the expected level at all stages of their education. For example, threequarters of children from families where no one works failed to reach the expected level at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE), pared to around half of children in lowerine working families. So attention should be paid to children in outofwork homes. Having working parents means a child is more likely to do better at school, to have better health, education and development, and also means they are less likely to fall into crime. But for some families, worklessness, or not employment, is the norm. They just choose not to work. These families often face huge barriers to getting on with their lives but they take the opportunities offered by the society. Parents39。 ability to work is frustrated by issues like low skills or poor mental or physical health, or drug and alcohol dependency, leaving children without the stability they need. We all want to help workless families with plex problems so that their children can take advantage of the opportunities in Britain. We all want parents to have the chance to go out to earn a living and to enjoy the pleasure of work, so that their children can benefit from the good examples of working parents. In doing so, we should know the need to understand the plex issues that some families face and to develop a new approach to deal with poverty. Because the root causes are not financial. It is about helping families overe the problems they face so that they can go as far as their talents and hard work will take them. We shouldn39。t retreat from acting to deal with disadvantages, because we know the costs of inaction to individuals, munities and society.（1）According to the author, children in workless families may .
