Opinion: If I were in charge of ... A big mansion. Becky Dunn, 9, south London

I'd like to be in charge of a big mansion because everyone would come to it and give parties and stuff. There would be limousines on the other side and they would take people home and take people to the big party in the mansion.

We would have party foods. We'd have ice cream, jelly, chocolate, popcorn and any type of sweets you liked.

In the garden there would be a big swimming pool and it would have lights around it so you could go swimming in the dark. I'd make sure that grown-ups had to wait a few hours and have kids' hours for the pool. I'd have underwater polo and underwater basketball so you could play under water.

You'd have a special type of pool so you didn't float to the top and you'd wear a special suit with oxygen inside your mask to breathe.

I'd also have a disco in the mansion and a room where people could get pampered if they didn't want loud music. I'd have a DJ outside.
