The existence of sons or daughters is a cause of poverty, as stated in this report by Save de Children: in its projection (page 24, in Spanish), in the Spanish State, 16.1% of households without children are in poverty in 2020. Conversely, the percentage of poverty in households with children is 25.4% in which two parents share a household, 28.3% in the case of other models and the most serious is the situation of single parent families: In the CAV, 55% of these cases are in poverty, and these are families that are, above all, mothers.

The association points out that in the CAPV, the average cost of raising a child is 615 euros per year, an amount that increases as the age of the child increases.
