[quote=Anonymous]This does seem to be an increasing issue. We have had 4 au pairs but not until this last one have we had to institute strict rules about phone use. In fact, we never had to give any rules at all, other than don't use it while driving (but it was never an issue, in the same way that everyone waears a seatbelt was never an issue...but of course, that would be very unsafe). Is it bc of the new kinds of phones and/or unlimited plans or is it a cultural issue that is just now surfacing? Do other countries have different expectations/etiquette about using mobile phones? Is it this "younger generation". Our youngest prior au pair started at 18, this was 5 years ago, but never had an issue. Our current AP, with the addiction, is 19, almost 20.[/quote]
