Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Tony M: But that is describing a specific benefit, and is only relevant to the situation in the US; the context here is clearly a general discussion about welfare for children.

disagree  AllegroTrans: the text is about child welfare in the generic sense
2 hrs

neutral  SafeTex: Not only do I agree with Tony and Allegro, but all children are legally dependent so I think you meant "Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC)". Dropping "families" creates additional problems

neutral  Tony M: If this were about some specific benefit, then this might be appropriate; but we know that is not the context here: this is a general term referring to child welfare as a principle.

disagree  AllegroTrans: no, the text is about the generic (on a global basis), you have opted for a specific benefit
