Reality dawns on us more severely as we get older, when we encounter things like rent, bills, and the general cost of living.

However, according to a new poll by Provident Personal Credit, those as young as 5 years old may be feeling financial pressures.

1,000 UK children aged 5-12 were asked about how much they thought things cost and their attitudes towards family finances.

When it came to how much money their family has, 12% of 5-7 year-olds said they felt pressure about it, compared to 18% of 8-9 year-olds and 21% of 10-12 year-olds.

One in five of the children surveyed overall said their family income was a cause of tension with their friends, with 10% of 10-12 year-olds saying they felt the pressure to have a bigger or nicer house in front of their peers.

More than 16% of 5-7 year-olds said they feel like they have to have the latest gadgets, and nearly a quarter (24%) of 8-9 year-olds felt pressure to wear designer clothes.

However, it seems that children still don't quite have a grasp on how much things actually cost, as the video below shows. On average, the children set themselves a target of earning £5,900 a month when they grew up.
