I think the report is actually referring to children brought up and living in the UK, compared to certain other developed countries.

Someone please clarify???? Are your kids worse or better since arriving in Oz?
This UNICEF report in the news today paints a pretty poor picture of British kids - being bottom of 20 rich countries.
Dont tell me that my lippy, extravert, over-confident, troublesome teen is going to get worse when we land in Oz and grow up to be a unstable Australain Citizen???
