[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a stage 5 clinger. She wants to he with us all the time. She is in the family room when I wake up and when I'm asleep. She hears me come home she bolts upstairs. She chatters on and in non stop. She is currently upset because we don't include her in things like going to Costco, wegmans, or our family friends houses for dinner. She is more needy than my own children. We have never had an AuPair like this and it is miserable. This is our last year and I'm counting down each day until her year is up. All of our AuPairs wanted to do their own thing on the weekends and evenings. We have never asked an AuPair to work on weekends aside from a free random weekends. We like hanging with our kids and cherish time as a family. [/quote] You could also do your share of the deal and ask her if she wants to join you on these family activities. Not all the time but from time to time. This way she'll feel included. It looks like you were not meant to do that programme if you're not willing to share much with the AP.[/quote] She's with us at all hours in the home except when I sleep, though I'm convinced if we allowed it she would sleep in our room. I need to at least be able to get to the store by myself. It's like I have a toddler and grocery shopping is a relief.[/quote]
