[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]South African profiles are the only ones who ever say they are not comfortable living with people of a different race (standard question on the ccap application). Even though we are Caucasian, I am not willing to bring that kind of racism in to my home. (We also won't take anyone not willing to live with same-sex couples for similar reasons)[/quote] [b]My guess is that they are wary of the host family living in a not so nice neighborhood, and the cultural differences. [/b] In South Africa the black population is not English speaking. Cultural differences are huge, not just in roles of men/women, but in how people interact You would need to tell people more about yourselves [/quote] Wow. And yet, as a POC who has hired au pairs, not surprising at all. This kind of racist BS is why I gave up on the program. -POC who lives in a rich neighborhood that white people are moving OUT of[/quote]
