Different dimensions of material deprivation for Russian and European households with children in general, as well as, for households with three and more children and single person with children are considered by the author. The analysis shows that, comparing to European countries, households with children in Russia on average have higher rates of material deprivation and severe material deprivation. That indicates the need to strengthen social support to vulnerable households with children in Russia in order to reduce their deprivation.
