[quote=Anonymous]08:04 here. I don't have au pair experience, so I was just commenting as I've definitely dealt with this issue! My thinking, which I leave to those of you with more au pair experience to take or discount, is that the stipend is because the mom is not trying to limit the au pair's food use. She is simply turning over the extra budgeted grocery money, for increased snack food now that au pair is here, so that the au pair can control it and have her own selection of snacks that others may enjoy, but, out of politeness, will not polish off. This makes it seem less like a budget issue and more like the politeness, living with a family issue, that it really is. [/quote]
