Young carers are people under eighteen who look after another member of their family with a health problem, a mental illness, or a physical disability. In the U.S., there are more than 1.4 million young carers. Todd is sixteen, and he looks after his mother. She has an illness, and she can’t move properly. It’s a full-time job. "I don’t have any brothers or sisters. Every day I get up at 6 a.m., get dressed, and set the table for breakfast. I make my bed and clean up my room. Then I make breakfast. I help my mom eat her breakfast. I take her into the living room, where she watches TV. I wash the dishes and take out any garbage. Then I get the bus to school. I go home at lunchtime every day and check on my mom's OK. I always have lunch with her. Three evenings a week, I do the laundry. I have to cook meals, keep the house clean, and do my homework. It’s hard. I can’t see my friends much because I’m worried about leaving my mom. It’s exhausting, but I have to do it. I can’t let anyone else look after her. "
