I will talk about where I come from, back at home. At home we stay at my mother's house but it is not only me and sibling brother there are also our cousins who stay with us. When I refer to my cousins I refer to my uncles and aunts kids. My mother does not stay at home because of work, she stays close to work she comes home sometimes during weekends or maybe when there is an emergency, so that is where and how we got to stay with our cousins because they are old than us so when my mother is not at home we refer to them as elders who we are left with at home. Another reason they are staying with us is because when it is during school time like this me and my brother leave home for school and my mother does not like the house to be left alone closed because a lot can happen. At home my mother buys food what we are suppose to do us as people who stay at home is to cook and clean the house everyday.

We take turns in doing house chores, but my cousin sister does not mind doing things herself everyday unless she's tired she would just tell us to please do this and this and it is always not a problem because we know no one must feel like they are forced to do house chores because it is the duty for all of us to make sure it is clean where we stay and also when my mother gets home she must come to a nice house so that she can tell that indeed there are people who stay at home and take responsibility. We were staying like this at home then my cousin sister asked my mom if she can please go fetch her child to come stay with us because where he was staying at his father's side things were not the same anymore and my mom did not have a problem with that because she took my cousin sister's child her grandchild. Now we were added at home and still that was not a problem because nothing really changed a person was still going to stick on what they were doing even before.

In some cases when we run out of something in the house and someone has money they buy whatever we in short of we do not wait for my mother because it is us that need that particular thing. Also this is not a one's person's duty anyone who has money can buy because at the end of the day we will all benefit from it. There is no sense of self-centeredness in my household that is why it is easy for all of us to adapt and enjoy living in a way we live in. Another thing is that from where I come from it is more of a kinship thing because I remember one time I asked my mother if my friend can come and do a sleepover at my house my mom wanted to make sure if her parents knew about arrangements before agreeing, but if it was one of my other cousins she would not even mind to come home and see them unannounced because we are blood related with them.
