[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The J-1 visa permits Au Pair in America participants to reside legally in the United States for 12 months while caring for children in a program-approved host family. The problem seems to be that the au pair expects a cultural exchange while the host family is often only looking for cheap labor. Politico.com did a well-written expose and pointed out that lobbyists for the involved employment agencies spend a great deal of money to defeat any proposed reforms. [/quote] A friend of mine has an au pair and estimates her total annual cost at 30K....not exactly cheap labor.[/quote] That's what she was telling you...:) It is indentured labor. [/quote]
