[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not that it caused these murders but the au pair program really is nuts. [/quote] In what way pp? It provides a (cheap) service for families , much needed - especially in this country. An for the au pairs, it offers the opportunity to experience living abroad, improving their foreign language skills while making a little bit of $$. This particular case is rare, the exception. There is a reason why no one thought the au pair was involved at all until she was arrested. Of course there are a few hiccups here in there, but in general it is a good program. [/quote] The au pair program is not cheap at all, especially if you have only one child like this couple. This myth needs to die. Daycare is cheaper, and you don't have to house anyone. Nannies can also be cheaper. It depends on where you live. The host family spends a minumum of $24K, and most families spend a lot more easily $30K or even $40K. We don't live in the DC area anymore and we are at over $40K plus housing. [/quote]
