[quote=Anonymous][quote]As a host mom, I am stunned that none of you seem to think that this is a problem. Do you also think that it's fine that the minium salary has not increased in 10 years? That a single mom working at minimum wage might not have seen an increase in 10 years? Yes, she has more 'important' expenses, but at the core, it's the same issue. Everything costs more, but salaries have not increased. And you are arguing over $4.25 per week? Do you realize how absurd it looks from the outside?[/quote] Really? I would leave this program before I paid a penny more than $200 for the stipend unless the agency offset the cost. If you are so up in arms about the stipend, how about taking it up with the agency? And what is the typical cost of living increase anyway? 2%? Well then I already pay well over that in the form of her personal gas, toiletries, and special food requests.[/quote]
