I agree there are people treat maids as slaves, but there are alot of people treat maids as part of family , and they should be part of family .

But some of maid miss use this trust or the people here don't undersstand maids.

i will tell u my experience with maids :
we tried many times to tell our maid to eat whatever she wants and whenever and we ask her what does she likes to eat ( we know they have thier own way to cook ) but till now we don't know what she wants .

We keep bringing her clothes but she keep wearing her old staff

She keep asking other people to bring her things she needs and she is not telling us

some of them they don't know arabic or english , and some they act that they dont but which make hard to deal with them or to communicate with them.
I know these are not excuse to deal with them as slaves.
