A dad's interview with his 9 year old daughter
Having not been furloughed during the pandemic when I have been home I have seen my daughter cope well with lockdowns, always finding something that has occupied her.
I have all so seen her grow both in confidence and in character.
My daughter like me enjoys photography and with that in mind and after talking to her about what I wanted to do, and with her permission I set about photographing her and asking her 10 question over two days that she would answer honestly to give a snap shot of a 9 year in lockdown.
How do you find home schooling and on-line lessons?
Not too bad, just don’t like how you have to do them every day.

What do you miss when we are in lockdown?

What are your hopes?
To get better at drawing. Being able to talk more in front of people as I don’t like to talk in front a lot of people at once. To get a kitten.
