[quote=Anonymous]I've actually encouraged my AP to make it clear that she needs to be paid when she's being asked to take care of my kid's friends either on duty hours or off duty hours. We have a couple sets of good friends who have inappropriately started leaning on our AP as the back-up care -- funny how those "playdates" always end up at our house. Given that our kids are good friends, it works out most of the time but I want our AP to be compensated for her extra work, and I don't want the other families assuming AP is their free back-up childcare. Exchanging favors between parents is one thing, but expecting my AP to do those favors doesn't work for me. I know that technically it's a visa violation, but I'm OK with my APs babysitting to earn extra cash as long as they aren't scheduling hours that interfere with their work hours and they're not too burned out.[/quote]
