[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a developing country and we had several household helpers who came in for a few hours/ day. One person to sweep and mop the floors, dust and do laundry. Another to help in the kitchen with cooking and do dishes. These two worked at other homes too, a few hours per day. A driver, who was a full time employee who'd drive my dad to work, us to school and back, and to any classes/ after school activities. In between during the work day he'd run errands as needed - ie pick up groceries/ dry cleaning or whatever. All this in a very middle class household. I miss it! For life here, I'd add in a manager who could do jobs like keeping track of all the kid tasks - lessons, camps, doctor and dentist visits, school forms, etc. [/quote]
