Ngemuva kokuzalwa konke, abazali abasebenzayo basenayo izinyanga eziyisishiyagalombili zekhefu lokukhokha ukuze bahlukane phakathi kwabo, kodwa amasonto amane athengiswa ubaba kuphela. Ngobusuku, ukuhamba kwezingane ezihamba phambili kwahamba kwaba amaphesenti angaba ngu-3 kuya kuma-35 amaphesenti obaba. Khona-ke kwenzeka into emangalisa nakakhulu.
