US, Britain ranked last in UNICEF child well-being study

The United States and Britain are placed last among 21 rich industrial countries in terms of the children's quality of life, according to a UNICEF study released in Berlin on Wednesday.

Titled 'Child poverty in perspective: an overview of child well-being in rich countries', the UNICEF report compared 21 industrial countries in six categories namely material well-being, family and peer relationships, educational well-being, health and safety, behavior and risks, and children's subjective well-being.

Meanwhile children in the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark and Finland have the best future chances, the UNICEF survey said.

The Federal Republic of Germany was placed 11th in the UNICEF table.
