“You spend a lot in the summer, but you don’t have to think about it, otherwise I wouldn’t have it”

Thais Villa Transferred from El Intermedio last season affluent neighborhoods and working-class neighborhoods to find out what moms did in the summer When the children were on holidays, they were still working. “We used a compound or we hired a person to look after them,” said a woman from a wealthy neighborhood, while a girl from a working-class neighborhood said her grandmother looked after her children.

The reporter asked the young woman if she couldn’t hire someone to look after her children in the summer, but the girl from the working-class neighborhood replied that “that’s not crazy.” “With our salaries? 800 euros,” the girl lamented. For her part, another woman from the working-class neighborhood explained that she and her husband organize their work schedules so that one of them is with the children: “He works in the morning and I work in the afternoon.” “I had to cut my work day in half,” This was echoed by a woman from a working-class neighborhood who said she could not hire anyone and her grandparents were very old.

But what could it cost a person to look after children in the summer at that time? “If you want me to take good care of them and be there all day it’s probably 1,200 euros a month,” explained a woman from a wealthy neighborhood, who is reflected in the main video of this news: “My three children were going to camp for 15 summer days to Poland or Germany, all very expensive. “It would almost have been better if they continued school, although it wasn’t cheap either,” explained the woman, who reflected: “You spend a lot in the summer, it goes on, but you don’t have to think about it, If not, I wouldn’t have children,” the woman said. On the other hand, another woman from a rich neighbourhood confessed that she had to spend at least 3,000 euros for her children in the summer.
