[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do any of you really think there's hope for parents of a child who kicks the au pair? You seem not to have any experience with that sort of thing. Seriously, it's one thing for your child to kick you, but doing that to an au pair is a whole different ball game. Get real.[/quote] I think most of the responders here have agreed that if a child (a seven year old!) kicks the AP and the host family refuses to deal with it, that this is really true grounds for rematch (or at least REALLY serious mediation, with rematch imminent if the family doesn't address it). But based on follow-up posts from OP, I am now wondering if the kicking is actually a persistent problem, or a one-time thing that simply needs to be addressed and resolved. (Even one time is not acceptable, obviously, if the host dad just laughs. But one time is objectively different than a child who does this all the time with no repercussions.)[/quote]
