Birthday Gift for Mediocre Au Pair?

We also gave her a card and $50 gift card. She ate in the other room with her friends, open the card and gift, gave us a blank stare and told us how her BFF AP got tickets home to see her family for her birthday. I will never go out of my way for another AP that doesn't perform well.

You simply are a selfish being and would never do anything for anyone as entitled as you are-cheap employer
