So whether it's money worries or not feeling like you're making your money go as far as it should.

And I've noticed more and more, even friends, moms at the school gates, although my daughter's in secondary school so I don't get to go there that often.

But I've noticed that people who particularly may not have struggled with a budget in the past because their higher earnings are suddenly struggling to cover everything.

How come I can't make it work? And I think that's an extra element of shame that maybe people haven't thought about before.
