When I was a boy, I had to walk six kilometers to school. There was no other way of getting there.
At home we didn’t have a television, so we had to make our own entertainment(娱乐).

Martin, the son, 44 years old

Because my father left school very early and felt sorry for it later, he wanted me to do well at school. I had to show him my homework every night and I could only watch television at the weekend.
When I was eighteen, I got a place at university. My parents didn’t have to pay for my study because the government did.
I didn’t go home very often, even during the holidays. I preferred to spend time traveling around.
Brian, the grandson, 19 years old

When I was at school, I had a lot of freedom. When I went out, I didn’t have to come home at a certain time ---- my parents believed in me.
I’m at college now, and my parents have to pay for my studies, but I have to work in the evenings to pay for any additional entertainment and expensive things I want.
I think it’s wrong that my parents have to pay for my studies. I think colleges and universities should be free for everybody.
