[quote=Anonymous]I've hosted five APs, and most of them enjoyed cooking one or two family meals per month. One AP didn't cook, and we didn't expect her to. Food and meals are part of the cultural exchange- they cook recipes from home- as well as shared responsibilities in the household. If I had a college roommate who only ate all of my prepared meals, but didn't offer to clean up or prepare meals once in a while, I would've been upset. Explain to AP that it takes a lot of time and effort to prepare meals, would she mind helping out by doing the dishes, or whatever her strength may be. If your AP was living at home with parents who cooked and cleaned for her, she is probably clueless about helping out.[/quote]
