I'm sure you're right that bad things tend to be invisible to me, the article even has an example of children trying to keep their shopping a secret.

But 1 in 3.5... idk, if you assume households with kids have a couple of kids, that's getting pretty close to saying the median UK household with a 9 to 18 year old has a 50+ hour caring situation. I don't see that being invisible.

> Not immediately clear if "caring for family members" includes older children caring for younger children, but that would certainly bring up the numbers.

Suspect this is basically right as well.
