[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this a serious post? It's none of your business. God some of the people who host au pairs are so entitled. They're not slaves. You do not own them. [/quote]

I call BS that this was written by a host parents.  Of course they're not slaves.  But they're young people living in our houses who are supposed to be members of our family.  Can you imagine the outcry on here if HPs decided we were going to tell our APs nothing, and be secretive around them all of the time?  I don't expect to know everything my AP is doing while living with me.  But if they want to share nothing then they're not an AP.  They're a young person living in my house providing child care.  Which is not the point of the program.

Members of your family? You have got to be joking. They're family members until they leave after a year. Some cultures are more private OP. Mind your own business. [/quote]

Are you a HP?  So you're saying you don't want them to be a member of your family but just child care?  You understand that this is what APs usually bitch about on these forums.  There is a difference between private and secretive.  There is a difference between trying to have a life of their own and ignoring the family they live with.  To me if an AP doesn't want to share anything about themselves/their lives...they shouldn't be an AP.

It’s the same miserable troll, a former AP who comments daily on this forum. Ignore.[/quote]
