And the inflation rate is there for parison. W: Yes. Why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation? M: I39。m sorry, I39。ve no idea. Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous. W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were a lot better off in 2020 than they were in 2020. That39。s strange, isn39。t it?
