[quote=Anonymous]I'm a long-time host mom and my husband and I decided we need to ask our Au Pairs in a polite way to not get us gifts for Christmas and our birthdays. It is always so sweet of them to try to choose something for us and it is always something thoughtful but not necessary and they are using their money for it. I just feel terrible once they are gone giving the items away knowing that they spent time and money on them. My husband and I don't even exchange material possessions any longer (our last anniversary we both got our cars detailed!) Anyway, does anyone else have this policy and how do you word it in your handbook? We always give them cash and a few small token gifts for birthday and Christmas and I don't mind if they want to get something little for the kids...just want to save them the $ and effort.[/quote]
