There was one time when I had looked up the prices for skating classes for my daughter, and by chance I talked to the mother of one of my daughter's classmates. She asked me the price and I told her that the cost was 120 soles ($31.98) for 4 classes, 1 hour each class. I thought that was fine, it's a standard price for sports activities, there are some sports that cost more of course, but these classes really were a good price. She was surprised, and she responded alarmed and indignant saying "how is it possible that it is so expensive? That's too much, what do parents with several children do? How would I do if I have 3 children? That price is an outrage." I answered something silly so as not to tell her what I really thought, what I wanted to tell her was: If you have limited resources, why do you have so many children? Contraceptive methods in Peru are FREE (they give them to you in hospitals and health centers), secondly, each business has its niche of clients and you are not one of them, many, many people in this country have the financial means to put 5 children in skating classes. Obviously, I didn't say any of that out loud, I just thought it. I'm not in the best economic situation, let's say, but I recognize when prices are realistic and in line with the product or service and I'm aware that I'm the one who can't afford it and not that businesses should lower prices. Based on the thoughts of this lady who told you, they begin to sow these ideas of envy and "equity" of wealth.
