Poverty may be the mother of crime, but lack of good sense is the father.

Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child isn't.

The lack of access to proper nutrition is not only fueling obesity, it is leading to food insecurity and hunger among our children.

My husband and I believe that if you treat a child well and nurture his talent and physical ability, in a healthy environment, the child will succeed no matter what.

Hunger and malnutrition have devastating consequences for children and have been linked to low birth weight and birth defects, obesity, mental and physical health problems, and poorer educational outcomes.

Healthy children are born from healthy, respected, well-nourished and educated mothers and it is imperative that they have a voice in the decisions which affect them. If you empower a mother and let her have her say towards a poverty-free future, the positive impact this would have on ending hunger will be immense.

The task of the educator lies in seeing that the child does not confound good with immobility and evil with activity.

If we were really tough on crime, we'd try to save our children from the desperation and deprivation that leave them primed for a life of crime.

I don't think one ought to bring a clearly disabled child into the world.
