Quality of life.


Quality of life includes a clean environment, personal safety, political rights, and the right to earn a living. Standard of living is just one aspect of quality of life. Standard of living is a common measure of the quantity and quality of goods and services to which you have access. Standard of living in the dictionary states it is generally measured by standards such as real income per person and poverty rate. Some individuals, countries, and communities have a high standard of living because they can afford to buy the necessities of life. Other people in the poorer countries don't have a high standard of living because they do not have the wealth required to purchase the goods and services that others in the world take granted.

Children in Africa for example don't have a high standard of living. Most people have food, safe water, and shelter; these are some qualities of life they should have. The pictures of the children show their standard of living is very low. Most people with a high standard of living take things for granted. Like most children or people don't finish their meal when african children are looking for a small portion of food somewhere. Water bottles are used for their shoes, when some children want new basketball shoes every month. It's sad to see the people living in a low standard of life.
