Why is this bad? Would you put her needs over that of you or your family?

The fact that you wrote this and saw no problem with it proves to me that as nannies we owe the family we work with no loyalty of any kind. What a bunch of selfish witches, who would even try to get their nanny in legal trouble because they are bitter they can't use her anymore. Sickening![/quote]

Nanny here.

Frankly, I would turn in an AP who was doing extra work during their AP year, overstayed their visa or got a different visa and continued to work without being allowed.  These are not small peanuts.  They diminish the way that childcare workers are viewed, and they cut down on the work available to other people who are legally entitled to live here and work freely.[/quote]

+1000  - The reason why there are so few Thai visas issued anymore is because their overstay rate was incredibly high in the early 2000s.  It's not just one aupair overstaying, it's the quantity that will change the amount of visas that country is giving on the aupair program.  If someone stays legally and changes the visa to a student one, of course, that's fair enough. I would encourage an aupair to stay legally and switch her/his visa. I wouldn't sponsor someone I couldn't support though. It's a risk otherwise. [/quote]
