I don't know if it is me or what. Now, I am not that old (born in 1996) but I've got a feeling the majority children from back then come accross as very articulate and seemt to be able to organise their thoughts in a way that makes sense. I also have the feeling that today's children struggle to complete a sentence or put their thoughts forward. I would love to see something like this being made today in 2022 and I really wish to be proven wrong.
I agree I am born 1944 had one child in 1969 another 72 and last 81 I love to hear these documentaries and see how well thought out answers are given by such young children.
I love videos like these. The kids are now in their mid 60s and you think what each of them grew up to be and how their lives evolved. Fascinating stuff.
If you love this sort of thing, you MUST try and get hold of the '7-Up' series that ran for years, following a group of children from various classes of society from the 60s all through until the early 2000's I think, and how they all turned out! Maybe there are clips of it on UA-cam, but I have the whole dvd set! EDIT : the whole series is in a playlist called 'The 7 Up series'! Each episode is is over 2 hours long!
man i LOVE these kids.. This is my generation but here in the US im sure we never had a discussion like this in my classes. These kids have learned so much by getting an allowance.
When I was 9 in 1969 the school opened a bank for pupils .. my pa gave me one pound to put in it When I started work in 1977 my first wage was $16.70p ... so that was quite an amount for my first bank entry . Actually that was the only money paid in .... a few years ago I found the payment book in our old house . I contacted the bank to see how much interest that one pound had made ......... None !
The dumbing down of society has never been so apparent listening to these eloquently spoken children. They had critical thinking skills and were well aware of the cost of living and the importance of budgeting/financial responsibilities.
I was 5 in 1970 and I remember my class being this quiet and organized, no one yelled out of turn. I have been a teacher of teenagers in USA for 25 years and rarely had a class that wasn't talking all the time. The only reason they talk less now than 10-15 years ago is because they are staring at their mobiles. As a teacher it feels very strange to see such thoughtful students who are not interrupting each other.
This might sound strange to people today but kids in those days were definitely sharper, more on the ball as we used to say. They were also capable of critical and independent thought something tragically lacking today.

It's great to watch this news topic, I was three years old during the broadcast of this BBC program, great to watch news topics that you were too young to watch first time round.
One pound in 1970 is like $20. today... I was there in 1972 the year they went decimal. I was disappointed because I studied-up on Pounds/shillings/pence. Visited a friend who lived in Cranley Gardens, London ... His rent was 12 pounds a week
I was at junior school in the late 1960s and, like Philip, I got 1/6d a week. Some of it was spent at on sweets at our corner shop, some I saved up so I could buy toy cars (Husky) from Woolworths.
I was just a month old at the time and eight months old when decimalisation took place. This sort of scene would have been the late 70s (junior school era). I am now aged 52!
So well spoken and sensible, and this is a state school not a private school. Try speaking to kids today, you'll be lucky if you get a few grunts as a reply.

I like how everyone is quiet when the the teacher is talking it’s remarkable to see how classes were back in the day. Man my class was that soooo loud in 2010s!

I can’t imagine asking students today the same question and getting such thoughtful answers back. We are a much more entitled and frivolous lot these days I think. Too bad. These students had parents born around the time of WWII and the Great Depression. Their grandparents hailed from between the time of the Great Depression and the Spanish Flu Pandemic. It had an impact. They knew loss and lack of. Even though their parents had more disposable income than any other cohort of the last 75 years, they knew restraint, moderation and what it took to implement and maintain austerity measures
So 1 and 6 is 1 shilling plus 6 pence which is equivalent to around $10-12 in American spending power today. i.e one could buy about 6 candy bars with it.
@@paulhease1007 Not quite. It was 18 pennies. So, at the time it was around 50 US cents and slightly over $2.50 at today's value but sweets/candy inflation over the years has outstripped other inflation by a vey large amount so on a purchase parity basis it's around $5
