LONDON: When he is not playing soccer in Italy, David Beckham takes time out to help his kids in the US do their homework over the Internet.

The Los Angeles-based star is on loan at AC Milan, separating him from wife Victoria and their three sons.

But the England ace refuses to neglect his fatherly duties. He has been using the Internet to keep in touch with his family, contactmusic.com reported.

Said Victoria, “The other night

I said to David, ‘I am really struggling with the homework here and I have so much going on at the house’. So I sat Brooklyn down in front of the computer and they Skyped for 20 minutes. Brooklyn did his reading to Daddy over the Skype.”
