[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see how the au pair program can be good when a good match is made. However, I also know it's like finding a needle in a haystack. So the potential for abusing the au pair is huge, and she has no recourse, unless she wants to be sent home at her own expense. If not, she has to obey and keep her mouth shut.[/quote] This is an odd statement. Are you saying that if a host family DOESN'T find that needle in a haystack, but rather, a fair to middling au pair, then they are more likely to abuse that au pair, and then send her home at her own expense? That has not been our experience at all. When we have rematched with badly chosen au pairs, we have not abused them - we have been frustrated that they can't or won't perform as we had hoped. And then they are given many chances to find new host families that want to work with them.[/quote]
