With school starting in just a few days for most pupils in Luxembourg, the back-to-school is going to be a lot different than it ever was. Wearing masks in class, social distancing, regular hand washing etc… The new normal is upon us.
While some parents have lost their jobs due to the pandemic or are forced to work less, thus earn less, others are working from home without experiencing a pay cut… Even if for some of them, their income remains the same because they are lucky enough to work from home, in these times of uncertainty, are parents going to uphold the level of pocket money that they give their kids? Or will they stop giving pocket money all together in favour of other, more pressing expenses?
