Child tax credit are for parents who work but are low earners.
Think of it as a government loan. Every child born in this country is used as collateral for government borrowing. They base that collateral on the child growing up and being a long term tax payer. If people stopped having children because they couldn't personally afford them without a bit of help the future economy would fail because there wouldn't be enough people.
