[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should OP and the other families currently involved take on the financial burden of a lawsuit that they are bringing, when they appear to be doing it on principle rather than seeking money? You keep saying, only attorneys make money on class action suits. You're missing the point- they don't appear to care about the money but do appear to want to reform the system. What's wrong with that? And, if you're in an agency that has good business practices (as I was when i was recently a host mom) it can be hard to understand the extent of exactly how horrible and soulless one of the agencies is. If you're in a childcare business and you repeatedly offer unsafe people to families, you need to be taken to task and a class action lawsuit is the way to go. [/quote]

You are right; none of the families are in this for money and the agencies have proven over and over again they do not care about anything except money.  If the law firms make the money and the agencies have to pay in order for them to give us a level playing field, I am ok with that.  They obviously have not listened to host families, they have not responded to YELP reviews, they have not responded to BBB complaints, they have not responded to State Dept. investigations.  What else should hundreds of HF's do other than this?  There is also a few fall back plans in place as well. :-)[/quote]
