[quote=Anonymous]If you have a 3rd car dedicated for AP:

Do you make AP use car #1 or #2 for kid related activities, school pick ups? Then car #3 is exclusively for AP’s social driving?

Or do host parents use #1 and 2, so AP #3 is for all AP driving - work and social?

Thinking about doing the first option since one of our current cars is a minivan and we have 3 kids. But this means AP has to come directly home and then switch to their own car for the gym or whatever (assuming split shift). Maybe I’m too negative about the entitled APs everyone talks about, but since we wouldn’t pay for any gas on #3, I’m wondering if future AP might whine about the “inefficiency” of not being able to use our car (and our gas) to go directly to the gym (never mind that our schedule takes the driving home time into account).

Or would you not bother to get the third car since we don’t even use 2 cars all the time anyway? I suggested getting a 3rd car only to advertise it as a perk and be an older, cheap car that we didn’t care too much about for AP’s use only (but with limits—still no DC driving or road trips).[/quote]
