Pros

They're like a second family They offer a lot extra activities When is all good, there is a lot of fun, they know how to make you laugh

Cons

Sometimes you do not need a second family. You do not want the first one, imagine having 2! A lot of activities are not safe and you could end up in a bad way or go directly to jail or to the hospital if you do not take care of what you are doing Most of the time is not all good. Life with them is just about suffering. You cry inside. No one know, no one see. Your tears. Becouse of that we call it secret services. That's it. Do not trust yt.
