Maybe I'm just more sensitive to it now as I'm 32 weeks pregnant but I cannot help but wonder:
this week alone I've seen 3 maids dragging one or more kids across main roads where there was no walkway, a red light for pedestrians or very heavy traffic (River Valley Road, downhill, so add speeding cars to the mix).
I've seen toddlers being walked alongside the busy streets, the maid walking on the safe inwards side. I've watched the girls chat intently, not bothering to check on their charges, while the kids play in the pool, barely able to swim.
I think I've found a lovely maid, mid forties, trustworthy and caring...I really hope to God she is! Am I getting paranoid?

What is it with maids dragging expat kids across red lights, etc?
