I am a very caring and responsible person, for example we had stray dogs in the neighborhood I took care of them for a week in hopes of finding their owner and then gave them to the humane society. Ever since a young age I have been the eldest grandchild and jus the eldest kid in my neighborhood so coincidentally I have always watched my younger cousins when my family was busy or I'd watch my neighbors kids for money. I took lifeguarding lessons, so I have a CPR license. I wanted to be a lifeguard at one point help people, but it's a lot of physical training. Entertaining people is one of my strong suits, and it's one of the things I like most about caring for people, their interests. One of my closest friends brother is special needs, I took care of him for a weekend while they were gone, he had muscular dystrophy.
