When our sons were younger, they always had their friends over to our home. Now that they're grown up, we enjoy inviting foreign students to our home. We enjoy talking with our students. We help students with their homework and with their conversational English. We even change their bedding and clean their rooms, and do their laundry when they need help.
Students make their own breakfasts and lunches.
They are welcome to take as much or as little as they wish. We ask them to call us if they are not coming home for supper or if they are going to be late because, like with our own children, we worry. If they smoke, we ask them to do so outside or in their rooms. Students make what they want for themselves at both breakfast and lunch. We always have a well-balanced supper for our family and guests.
