What circumstances can fuel long-term poverty?

A family history of poverty could fuel it. Living in a city that is in poverty. Not having a good education. Not being able to get a good job.

How can poverty affect succeeding generations?

You can’t give your children a good education because you can’t pay for a good education. If your children get sick you don’t have the money to get medicine. Also, if you don’t have enough money for transportation they would have to walk and they could get hurt by a car. If employers see that a child comes from a poor family they might not want to employ them either.
