[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So all the Host Families who are welcoming French and German and Polish au pairs only to find out they are missing one meal a day? I lived in France fr 2 years and we did not eat 4 meals a day, nor did anyone I worked with. We ate a small breakfast, large lunch, and large dinner. It was a loooong time to get used to between between 12noon lunch and 8pm dinner, therefore the large lunch. [/quote] Also lived in France; in my experience, school-aged children have a significant after-school snack - one that looks like a small meal - with dinner at 8ish. I never counted it as 4 meals, but I've had to be really clear with our French APs how small an afternoon snack is so that he kids are hungry for our much earlier dinner (we eat at 6 b/c kids' bedtime is currently 7:30). (And yes, we are upfront in matching about family dinner time)[/quote]
