I don't really know my way around, I dare anyway.
Yesterday I overheard a conversation that was getting louder and louder. A boy wanted a toy. The mother said, I only have 20 euros. The boy begged for all he was worth. The mother said, you can stay here too. The boy said, I want this. The mother said, now you're about to get a slap on the face. In another day, I heard that the child asked relentlessly for an ice cream and the mother refused. And again, a father has said to his child, if he is not immediately quiet and well-behaved, he will be put in a bag by Santa Claus and taken away. As I then said, you mustn't say that to the little boy, he said, I don't know my way around at all. And then I have another experience, where the smoking mother did not allow the boy to ride the little merry-go-round, which was in front of the store. And if he continues to be so bad (because he was crying) then he doesn't get it at all and stays at home next time.
I think that none of this would have happened if there was basic income. It is also not at all compatible with a modern life with intelligent people and one should be ashamed of what we do to many families with their children. I mean, everything fits if the father has good income, even if the mother has good income. But if that's not so, then people suffer and especially children want yes the things that the other children can afford and then when it is not so, then it can sometimes, I think quite hurtful. Either absolute poverty with too "small pants with holes" or absolute poverty, which then go hand in hand with debt. And poor people are additionally burdened with higher interest rates by the banks. Maybe as an adult it's easier to deal with little money. Children don't. And on top of that they will ridiculed at school.
I think if we satisfy the basic needs of children, greed in adulthood will not be.
Maybe the consciousness of man turns something in this society because of Corona?
It is a cycle, but a basic income has to be earned in some way, otherwise it comes "too easily" and gets undervalued. What needs to really happen is that everyone has to start recognizing that ownership of a piece the economy is the only way to distribute the risk. This would mean less very high earners, but less very low earners. It takes time and a paradigm shift in mindset that most will not choose, because we live in an instant gratification world, and people want things they can't yet afford - so take on debt.

Hello tarazkp :) Thank you for everything.
I don't think basic income should be earned in any way, it can never be too easy because I think life is anything but easy and I dare say many children perceive the world as very threatening and that often does not change anymore. And I don't mean that basic income would be undervalued. People would be happy and a great burden would be lifted from them. It would be a way that the girl, for example, would not have to be afraid at school and tears would come when the teacher would ask where they were on vacation and everyone was in Italy or at the seaside and the girl herself was at home because the parents did not have the money. And it would be a way to lower a little bit the pressure of education and the need to find a job would be lowered and one's own spirituality could be felt and one could do one's own things that would come from the depths of the self, where the person in school often cannot achieve this and often only paralyzes him and many children, with grade 3 or 4-6 are declared a non-achiever.
I also believe that everyone should have ownership of a piece of the economy, but to this it is often not enough and many people need help to have this. It doesn't help a little girl or a little boy much when people do realize things and think that owning a piece of the economy is the only way to distribute the risk, but there is just literally nothing left at the end of the month.
Maybe a lot of adults live in a world of instant gratification, children don't, they have to beg for everything and are often, I would say, rather rudely rejected. I think, the poverty of people, and by that I mean, moreover, the poverty of children, and moreover, the poverty of children where the parents are rich, should be stopped.
