Research that benefits Children and Families

If I could imagine a research project that will positively affect children and their families I would conduct research on how effective the current methods used to help children cope with abuse are. The outcome I expect that we can determine the best practices and create standards in which professionals can use.

The topic of interest for me is children who live in poverty. I chose this topic becuase recently I have encountered a child with clearly defined developmental concerns and he is from a low income family. The reactions that the family has to these issues is not a common one. So I wonder if there environment plays a key part of their reactions. I want to research how poverty effects social development duri g early childhood years. Poverty is one of the largest issues affecting our country as well as many other nations. To my fellow colleagues I welcome any thoughts, comments or ideas concerning the topic.
