[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a nice post. However, I would never match with an au pair that refused to speak her native language with kids. Honestly, for us, that is the whole point of doing the au pair program. If we wanted a Spanish speaker who spoke decent non-native English or bad English with our kids, we could hire someone locally, which would be a lot cheaper for us. However, we do not want our kids picking up bad English habits from the au pair anymore than we want them picking up our Spanish mistakes as non-native speakers. [/quote] Hire a Spanish tutor. We are the ap hang out of our cluster and hear all the stories about families like yours. APs are not here to be language teachers.[/quote] Apparently, they are not here to be language teachers, or do work, or clean up after themselves, but they are here to shop, and travel and sell their bodies for cash and handbags. Good to know. [/quote]
