W:Good morning,everyone.Today we’re going to look at the wide differences in family life between the rich and the poor in Victorian times.Let’s begin with the upper classes.In Victorian times, the upper classes made up less than 3%of the population,yet held more than 90% of the country’s wealth.Most of their servants were very poorly paid,but were always living in the homes of upper-class Victorian families,so they didn’t have to pay for housing,food and clothing.(17)The money which they did earn,they sent to their families.Many servants came from the countryside. Among them were cooks,cleaners,gardeners and so on.(18)The family would also employ a child’s nurse whose main role was to care for the children.She was responsible for teaching the children how to behave and taking care of them when they were ill.Nurses did not,however,educate the children. Generally, children from wealthy families didn’t attend school outside the family home.Tutors would come to the house to do this.Now,the Victorian upper classes have the reputation of being quite cruel;but this wasn’t always the case.They were also quite generous.Some schools were set up with money from the upper classes so that poor children could have some form of education.Additionally,most Victorian parents were very proud of their children. This goes against the common idea that parents were very strict with their children.(19)In fact, the opposite was generally the rule. (20)However,the situation for lower class families was very different. Let’s have a look.
