[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a similar situation and talked to our AP.  With 4 months left she decided she’d rather just go home.  She got her travel arranged but there was about a 10 day wait.  We expressed that we wanted her to stay home and she promised she would.  Then she borrowed the car to go to the Asian food market and the next day on Facebook I saw she was posing with 3 friends at some local landmarks.  We were extremely pissed, she didn’t seem to get it at all.  I’m so glad she’s gone so we don’t have to basically lock her at home to make her understand.[/quote]

I would be SOOOOO pissed! How did that conversation go?? [/quote]

Us:  you said you were going to buy a few things we didn’t have at home but looks like you went with your friends for some photo ops.  Not ok.
Her:  oh, well, they are staying home too!  Except seeing their boyfriends
Us:  not ok.  Three friends?  That’s a lot of exposure!
Her:  why?

Yea, we did not even get into it. It was a text to her, a text to the LCC, and a we're done.  In the 5 days she was waiting on rematch it was made clear to her by both us and the LCC that one more stunt like that would result in her needing to check into a hotel o  her dime[/quote]

Wow, you are disgusting. [/quote]

Why? Because I put my family before someone who thinks the pandemic is fake news?

This message also came from the LCC. It is very clear. These AuPairs who don't respect the house rules and now stay at home orders won't even be allowed in the LCCs home.

She was not a prisoner, she also could have chopped on the first plane back home.

Again, an AuPair decides she won't respect the CDC recommendations, she can stay at the days inn, on her own money or head home. It's simple and very fair.[/quote]

This is called good parenting. You don't keep someone in your home who cannot obey the CDC guidelines. The poster was more than generous outlining the consequences and allowing time for a rematch.

There is no such rule that you have to keep an AuPair in the home that poses a danger to the family.[/quote]
