[quote=Anonymous]An AP live in situation is different than a live in nanny. Live-in nanny is an employee who needs her space and privacy. AP is supposed to be a "family member" hence living with the family. There are Host families where the whole family, including AP shares 1 bathroom, and they make it work. In my town, most of the APs share the bathroom with the kids. I (and my husband) tiptoe around the house when I come in late from an event, and I expect my AP to do the same. It's like having a college age daughter. They have to follow the house rules or there are consequences (grounding, privileges revoked) or possible rematch in APs case. I'm looking at Cultural Care now, and there are 50 girls in rematch. A large amount of them won't find a new family and will be sent home. The last 3 rematch girls in my town couldn't find a new family and went home. They were stunned- they think it's easy. But there's simply way more AP candidates than host families[/quote]
