[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to be clear, 0P For the price of a small stipend, you expect this teenage girl to be a better parent than your husband is?[/quote] Seriously though, this is a good point. It's up to DH and yourself to set the example for how you want things done. "Do as I say not as I do" is a horrible way to teach/model for someone and when you hire an AP you must realize that teaching is precisely what you have agreed to do. No effective supervisor in any situation has a "do as I say not as I do" mentality. It just doesn't work. Your AP may need to step up her game and you should certainly talk to her about it, but your DH needs to step up as well (and a better understanding of what being a host parent to this young woman entails)[/quote]
