@storiesofresilience_: Nearly 45% of parents in the UK have skipped meals or reduced their portions to afford Christmas according to a research by @barnardosretail On This Morning, Vanessa Feltz shares her experience of a fun-filled Christmas growing up, but I think the expectations from young people today differ. These expectations and a crising cost-of-living makes it harder for parents to offer what they can. Instead, they delay consumption, selling personal items or even use Buy Now Pay Later. https://www.barnardos.org.uk/news/struggling-parents-skipping-meals-and-going-debt-afford-christmas-their-children #food #poverty #christmas #research
