I got into a discussion about food banks with DGS age 7. During the conversation I said that there were probably some children at his school whose parents were so poor that they had to use food banks. He was quite adamant that there were no poor children in his school.
This led me to think over my childhood perceptions of poverty. I always thought of my family as not actually being poor but on the other hand not being well off enough for me to ask to go on school trips abroad. My father was always in work, we had a holiday away each summer and my sister and I went to a prep school until age eleven yet I knew we weren't rich.
Isn't it strange to look back on our childhood perceptions?
