[quote=Anonymous]We have had many au pairs over the years. Everything you mention is part of her job and/or part of being in a family. She needs to do these things correctly. I would never have put up with that behavior. She needs consequences like any child as she is [i]acting like a child[/i]. Until there are consequences, beyond just nagging, she will not improve - she has proven this after 4 months. So, consequences are that she loses privledges like using the car, using the phone you have provided (she only gets it when she is out of the house with the children), using whatever is an "extra" that you provide. That is how you have to proceed because she has given you no choice but to treat her like a child (just as you would your 12 year old). I know it seems ridiculous to treat an 18+ person in this way but your requests are being ignored and these tasks are all typical for ANY au pair.[/quote]
