At the time of writing, the children will be in secondary school and we hope that things are going well for them. We also would like to thank the Economic and Social Research Council for funding the research on which this book is based (award number ES/ K002384/1). We are extremely grateful to Margaret Leggett for her—as ever— entirely reliable and accurate transcribing, and also to Amani Noor Iqbal for her careful and beautiful drawings inspired by the children’s friendship maps.
