Hunger and Poverty Seen Blunting Black Children's Development
In a Boston AP report, hunger in early life is linked to reduced mental development in Black children. By age three deprived kids may lag behind better nourished peers, due partly to poverty's root causes. Geiger of Tufts calls for stimulating enrichment such as toys and books alongside broader social change.
