[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get the comments about housing. More than likely you have that extra bedroom regardless of it is used so its not costing you any more and you have her/him living with you for your need, not theirs.[/quote] Maybe not for you. For us, it's definitely an expense. Welcome basket with tolietries, snacks, gift certificates, metro card, etc. New towels/sheets. Custom decorations specifically for incoming AP based on their likes. Plus an extra adult is slightly more power/water/other utilities in addition to extra food. It's nice if you're rich enough not to notice these costs. It definitely weighs into our budget and whether we go with AP vs nanny vs daycare, etc. decision because the cost is not strictly agency fee plus stipend. [/quote]
