Tell her not to have xes because it's not a guarantee that she could get an abortion.

Mistake to willingly agree to have -more- teenagers in the house.

French person here. NO!

What's wrong with you?!?

We're normal people like you: some Europeans are permissive, some Europeans are most definitely not! You don't know what this exchange student's family is like, and you cannot make assumptions based on her home continent. Ridiculous!

The point of being an exchange student is to live like the children in the host family. OP, thanks for looking out for this minor. If you're asking the question here, clearly you care. Enforce some reasonable rules.

That is your automatic assumption?

Be happy she isn't dating one of your kids.

My question is, how much do I monitor and or restrict what she does. I’m not her parent so I’m not in a position to sit down and have a serious discussion about expectations.

How do I proceed here?

But you are her in loco parentis. And you can have house expectations.

Same rules I’d have for my own kids:
-No being alone at home without an adult
-Have info about who this kid is, where he lives and who the parents are
-No time in bedroom
-Home by midnight

Sixteen? oh no

Agreed. I would hold her to the same rules you would have for your own child that age.

OP here. They are 16.

Are you in communication with their parents?

Breaking the rules is the primary reason to be an exchange student.

How old are they? You need to go over your house rules and general expectations.
