[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First off, I respect my AP's privacy, but she does not have a "right" to privacy in our home.  I always ask (text if she's not around) before going in her room, but if it's important or doesn't make sense to wait (e.g., rain coming in the windows), I go right in.  I let them know this ahead of time.  Same for her going in our bedroom.  I don't expect it to happen often, but if she needs to go in there for something, I trust it's a good reason and I don't sweat it.  We've had five au pairs and I haven't felt the need to look in drawers or closets, but if I felt there was a real safety issue, I would.  Like I said, I respect privacy, but I make the rules in my house.  I'll hold my kids to the same when they are the same age. [/quote]

You don't make sense. How can you respect an attribute you don't think exists? You can't. I think most people would agree that there are different levels of privacy expectations for different areas. Dresser drawers is where that line is drawn. Unless there is an extreme and immediate concern for safety, there is no respect for another's privacy if you think you can open their dresser drawers. In this case OP doesn't even tell us why she went looking. [/quote]
