“I’m Lewis, and I’m five. I live with my mum, dad, and older brother. My parents both have good jobs.
We live near town, in our own home, so getting to school and work is easy. I get to do activities, and my parents can afford things I need without worrying all the time.
I feel safe and comfortable. My parents have time to help me learn and play. We also have lots of family nearby, which means there’s always someone to help.
My dad thinks a lot about my uncle, who needs care. My grandparents look after him, but they are getting older, and Dad might have to help more in the future.
I don’t always understand it, but I know it matters. My family talks about looking after each other.
I feel secure, but I can tell it’s not just about money. There are responsibilities that my parents carry, even when things seem fine.”
