[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty sure that most of the PP's responding that "well, did she know a car seat is required? Did you spell it out for her?" are not actually part of the AP program, or at least are not with CCAP. The orientation week that CCAP drills this into the APs heads. All APs know that car seats are required here in the U.S., just like all HFs know that the hours are capped.

I would definitely rematch after this, and officially, you are supposed to continue housing her, but I've seen enough rematch APs living with their LCC during rematch to know that somehow families can get out of it. [/quote]

Well, isn't that a great thing... Encourage someone to "get out of" a contractual commitment.  [/quote]

I'm not encouraging anything, but stating what I've observed - if the situation has gotten tense enough that neither party can stand to be in the same room as the other, then the AP stays with the LCC. It's part of the job description for an LCC - being able to temporarily house rematch APs. It's not advertised to HFs, but I interviewed a bunch of rematch APs when I was in a rush to get my first ASAP and all of them were staying with LCCs, rather than their HFs - and it seemed like the APs were the ones who could no longer stand to be the families, rather than them getting kicked out.
