[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why haven!t you told us exactly whst your ai pair has to do. I bet you are using her as your maid to clean your house. [/quote] Oh Please. NP here. Please no one feed the troll. OP- some au pairs are really immature. I try to avoid them, but you never know for sure. These au pairs are going to constantly be looking at what she DOESN'T have-- no matter what-- so try to grow a thick skin. I also think there are some host families (though OP doesn't sound this way to me) who really under-estimate the value of basic small talk and showing some interest and appreciation for the au pair. We don't have a grand set up at my house, and they work really hard-- but I always ask them about their day, how they're doing, etc. -- because I actually care about them. I think when people feel valued, it makes them better employees and more likely to understand your perspective. [/quote]
