Anyway, no. It will not remotely harm the program. There are plenty of young women who want to see America.

But they are choosing to wait three more years to do so.

EEs have other options for traveling or seeing the world now. It was not easy to work 45 hours a week for $115 to $125 back in a day.
Coming here as an Au Pair was one of the few options to see the world. That's not the case anymore.
Eastern Europeans would rather take a language course in Spain or England that come here. They can easily work few months in EU and then go back home or change countries.

My EE girlfriends and I have all been arrested in DC by police. One in Virginia I think, and we were not even targeted. This was just regular pick-up day for police.
Imagine not being white and ICA walking around.
We were all let go and got 'no papered'. Courts were confused why were were there. One even sat in the court with a broken arm.
She got arrested for her own broken arm. The arresting papers said that she broke someone else's arms. She is a nurse now, but boy were they close to ruining it all for her.
My case is even worse. I don't wan to talk about it. Glad I was strong enough to come out of it. Went to ask for help and got arrested instead. It all really depend who shows up after you call for help and less about what happened.
And the one in Virginia had taxi driver touch her sexually. She was terrified, tried to get out of the car without paying ofcourse (who has time for that) and he called the cops.
Another one arrived in US, but something wasn't right with her visa situation. Instead of sending her right back on another plane. they put her into detention for a week. Let her out, but kept her passport. Yeah, make it easier for her to get home. Who needs a passport. It was not easy to get a new one in 1995.

Obviously, you do not listen to daily need or read newspaper. ICE arrests by only one criterion: color of skin!

+1 White blond au pairs are fine in the Trump era. All others are safer to stay home.

1,000,000x this. I would never let my daughter come here in this immigration climate. No way.
