[quote=Anonymous]OP I get that their expenses are paid for and that they signed up for 45 hrs max but that’s the max and every family takes advantage of it. It should not be the standard. If I had an au pair I would think about my situation and see what makes sense for me. I’m not going to force an au pair to play with my kid on a sat evening just so I can make sure they fulfill the 45 hr cap. They come here for an experience and to help out a family but it seems like folks in DC are too selfish. Put yourself in their shoes and look at it from a different perspective. Also the $200 stipend is not generous, thats based off min wage. Min wage is NOT generous and most of these au pairs are providing a service that would cost you all thousands every month in daycare costs so you are the ones that are truely benefitting. [/quote]
