the lack of proper laws and regulations.
As much as I hate reading this about my country, I admit that part of it (if not all) is true.
But, beleive me, everyotheir nationality would tend to overuse manpower and domestic helpers (unless they are saints) if there weren't proper laws to regulate it and active human rights associations.
This is happening in all countried (not olny Lebanon) who don't have a clearly implemented regulation concerning domestic helpers: all Middle East, some Asian countries, most if not all of African countries...

This is sad, and a pity..
