[quote=Anonymous]I've had 8 au pairs, and our best have always had close, healthy (but not "dependent") relationships with their parents. The two who we rematched from both had strained relationships with their parents. I don't think this is a coincidence. At best, the candidate is someone who has terrible/unreasonable parents who have told her they don't support her, but yet she is still a balanced, reasonable individual. Even in that rare case, isn't her perspective on home/family life likely to be skewed by her experiences? At a minimum, its deserving of a follow up question: "Why don't they support you, and how did you deal with/work through your differences?" [/quote]
