What are the responsibilities of a host family?

To accept the exchange student as a new member of your family. The student will be governed not only by the rules of the program but by the rules of your household.  You are responsible for the safety of the exchange student the same as for your own children.  Although you might become a bit more of the soccer mom or dad for normal everyday activities, it is not your responsibility to act as a taxi service or a tour guide.  Rotarians for the hosting club will be helping in these areas.
