Parental Concerns in Greece: from safety to school shopping

More than one in two parents express concern about the safety of their children in the school environment!

According to a new nationwide survey by Focus Bari, entitled: “Parental concerns in Greece: From safety to school shopping” , it is found that:

  • Mental balance & bullying are the main parental concerns most prominently among moms and parents of teen and pre-teen children at the start of this school year.
  • For the new school year, parents choose school supplies mainly based on low prices and offers, taking into account the preferences of their children, while quality and durability seem to come in “second place” in view of the tight finances in Greek household.
  • The average expenditure on school supplies is €128, with older parents spending more.
  • Almost three out of four parents prefer to buy school supplies from physical stores, with just 7% opting exclusively for online shopping for these items.
  • Parents sourced school equipment from both well-known chain stores and local bookshops, with some choosing supermarkets.

Greeks AI & ChatGPT

According to a new  Survey by Focus Bari, which systematically monitors the relationship and opinions of Greeks regarding Artificial Intelligence, it is found that:

  • Two out of three Greeks express a cautious attitude towards the impact that the expanded use of IT will have on society and on our lives
  • Nevertheless, the proportion of Greeks who have a Chat GPT account is constantly increasing, from 21% in July 2023 to 30% in February 2024, and it is used for a multitude of topics of interest, for work and for studies by students.
  • While it is considered an easy-to-use, time & effort-saving tool, Chat GPT users largely find it needs some care in how to use it, as its responses are often simplistic and require verification.
  • Finally, a significant proportion of users fear that Chat GPT is dangerous because it hinders study, thinking, developing judgment and progress
