Your Duty at Home.
The Kid school bus will come and pick her up to school while you will be bringing her back home, play with her, take her to the Museums, Playground, Cinema Hall,Swimming pool prepare/fix her meals and snacks. You will have your private room which would consist Air-Conditional, Television, 24 hours Internet Access and a Telephone to keep you in touch with your friends, families and probably relatives as often as you may desire, a Bathroom and Toilet. and on weekly and on sundays service you will take the kid to the Church because we are a very good christian and we take it very important.
