For the children (politics) means that politicians are trying to do things to make life better for kids. This could mean things like creating laws that make sure kids have food to eat, passing laws that make sure kids can get a good education, passing laws that keep kids safe and healthy, and making sure that kids have access to healthcare. Politicians might also pass laws that protect kids from things like bullying, or make sure kids have access to recreational activities. All of these things can help kids grow up to be healthy, safe, and happy adults.
