[quote=Anonymous]OP, is this your first AP? Some of this may be growth pains. If it is not your first AP, then you really need to be more clear about your expectations. My kitchen is my office. I let every new AP know that the office needs to be cleaned after use - just as I do after every time I use it. We are a fairly easy HF, offer nice accommodations, and have pretty cooperative kids and a good schedule. I would probably rearrange my whole day for a kickass AP who never asks for anything extra. I rematch with APs who don't understand the basic requirements/parameters of the position, including we live on public transit lines and our car is used on the weekends exclusively for ferrying kids to their activities. If an AP wants unfettered access to a car, then she needs to look for a family that offers that, most likely in the suburbs or a rural area. [/quote]
