Question

Which social and economic group do they belong to?

Answer 1

The family living near our house belongs to a low socio-economic category.  

EXPLANATION:

• The husband and wife together go to work and they work as daily labourers employed with a construction firm.  

• The old people living with them are their parents and are very old and having medical problems.

• The children are small and they go to a school run in a shed.

• The family is living below the poverty line. The husband and wife are the only earning member in that family.  

• The old parents are too weak and do not have the strength to go out and work. They manage the house. They take care of the children living in the house.
