[quote=Anonymous]We're a host family who doesn't have a TV at all even for ourselves. We're just not TV watchers, although occasionally we'll use our iPad to watch a movie. All four of our au pairs have arrived with their own laptops, and have watched shows on them. We have wireless internet obviously and we told them we'd make a profile on our desktop, but no one has needed it.

I don't agree that it should be "mandatory" for host families to include a TV in their au pair's room at all or that they should be giving their au pairs a computer. In fact, it never occurred to me that I would need to. However, if you're an au pair who won't have a computer, it would be a good thing to ask before you match just like all the many other differences between host families. If you have to watch TV every night and don't want to watch it on your computer, say that. We wouldn't be a good match for you, but I'm sure many host families do have Tvs in their AP rooms.

Something to think about when you're matching. [/quote]
