hi i like being a care giving because that's just how i was raised and taught. i grew up with a mental disabled cousin and he was also physically disabled and i was his main care giver since my mom worked so much. my daily responsibility was to prepare a meal for him, also give him and bath, and also play with him and make sure he was just overall having a good day. i would have to catch the bus with him to get him to work and pick him up. i really enjoyed spending time with my cousin, a lot of people thought i was taking care of him but we were just hanging out i didn't mind helping him with things that normally People wouldn't need help with but overall he taught me a much better lesson.
