The Nestleacute; Family Monitor is a series of research studies into family life in Britain undertaken on behalf of Nestleacute; by MORI. It is designed to examine attitudes to and perceptions of family life and how families in a Britain function approaching the millennium. Each wave of research addresses a core set of issues as well as a number of topical subjects. This summer, the monitor focused on the school summer holiday; at home and going away. Selected highlights from this summer holiday study are described below.

A MORI poll has revealed one in five (19%) adults personally knows or has known someone who has experienced homelessness. The survey, commissioned by the national charity for homeless people, Crisis, to mark its 30th anniversary finds this figure rises to nearly three in ten (28%) of young people, 15-24 years.

Children would rather forfeit hobbies such as reading, playing with computer games and listening to music than eat up their vegetables, according to a MORI poll commissioned by the Cancer Research Campaign and frozen food giants Iceland. But the poll also shows that the majority of 7-12 year-olds will accept a bribe to get them to eat their greens if the stakes are high enough.
