[quote=Anonymous]I have recently looked at a few discussions on this forum and it seems like a number of posters do not use all the au pair hours permissible per week. We follow the rules religiously, and so I make sure to use all 45 of the au pair's hours, we give at least one weekend off per month, and she never works more than five hours on a weekend day and never more than 10 hours per day. The handfull of times we have offered her the opportunity to babysit for extra hours and money, she typically has had something else going on (boyfriend, etc.). Are we in the minority? I was recently chafing at the idea of her having off four days for Thanksgiving because these are hours we won't get back, but in reality we do not need her since neither I nor DH will be working, so why not give her off. But I WOULD like to get some of those hours back. Am I off base? Should we have her work fewer than 45 hours?[/quote]
