[quote=Anonymous]+1 here too.

I don't generally have a curfew for my au pairs... but I do ask them to be home by 10 the night before they are working.  I've never had a problem.  I've had great au pairs.  Occasionally, if there is a special event they want to go to, as long as they talk to me I say its fine to stay out (once in a while) to 11, or 12, or even 1 the night before they work.

I disagree that its not appropriate to have curfews... especially when they are work related.  True, a regular employer (with whom you do not reside) wouldn't necessarily know what time you got home, and wouldn't really care as long as you did your job.  But neither would you want to broadcast to your employer that you got home at 4 in the morning before coming to work.  The difference with au pairs is that they live with us... so we know.  And some of them (like OP's) clearly lack a certain level of maturity and don't deserve to be treated like adults.

As to the poster who takes a slap at all au pairs -- think what you want.  I've had 3 AWESOME girls who were responsible and caring.  2 of them liked to party some too... but they did it in responsible ways.[/quote]
