[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rematch? You mean give the sick family another au pair to kick? Now I think you're sick to.[/quote]

Meaning give the au pair an opportunity to rematch with a new family whose child won't kick her.  Cool it.[/quote]
And what happens to the family, do you suppose? They get their money back?[/quote]

It depends.  If they get kicked out of the agency for not following rules and bad behavior toward an AP, they do not get their money back.  With many agencies, they don't get their money back whether they are officially "kicked out" or not (i.e. choose not to try for another AP).  If the agency determines that this kicking situation was not actually an abusive situation (e.g. happened only once, family addressed it during mediation, both sides of the story were taken into account, no actual injuries sustained, etc.), the family will be allowed to re-match.  If they do, they don't get their money back; they get another AP.  With many agencies, if they can't find another AP, they are SOL and won't get their money back.

But you weren't actually looking for a real answer, were you?[/quote]
