[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t know anything about my kids or our family, so I don’t really need that type of comment. Yes, my kids are easy. 
My oldest asked her if she could use her iPad to FaceTime me, despite a no screens rule during the week, and au pair didn’t say no, even though she knows the rules. Then the next day she said she didn’t know what to say when dd asked her. I said to tell her no and remind her of the rule. If she’d done that my dd would’ve listened. She is testing some boundaries but is not difficult in other ways. [/quote]

I don't think it's about electronics though, I am sure if your oldest had asked her to play on the Ipad she would have said no, by using the getting in touch with you through facetime your kid knew he/she was likely to hear a yes, it's difficult for an AP to know whethere or not they are allowed to preent a kid from reaching their parents, so I don't think the answer was that obvious here as I would also struggle to say no to someone else's kids reaching their parents whilst in my care if no instruction had been given[/quote]
