I wanted our four year old to take karate after his preschool, but we can’t sign him up for these types of activities because she can’t drive him there. To compensate for her inability to drive, I have had to extend the baby’s hours the 2 days a week that he still goes to daycare so that I can pick him up after work since she can’t get him after just a half-day like I had planned and make changes in my schedule.

My husband is considering signing her up for professional lessons, but at $50 / hr I just don’t think this is fair to us.

#AND THE GUY IN THE MIDDLE BURNED HIS DRIVERS LICENS. MANUAL#
I got her a driver’s manual her first week here from the DMV, but she says it is too hard for her to understand the english.
#AND THE GUY IN THE MIDDLE BURNED HIS DRIVERS LICENS. HOW TO#
She had to be taught how car mirrors work, what blind spots are, how to change lanes, how to respond when traffic lights turn yellow, etc. She still runs over curbs, tonight she hit the gas instead of the brake and jumped a parking curb and she does not understand general rules of driving or the general concepts in operating a car. this host dad could be doing for his family, other than acting as a driving teacher. Some days they even go twice a day, but her driving is not improving. My husband has been taking her driving seven days a week, one hour each day, to teach her for more than 4 weeks now.

She NEVER hinted that while she has a driver’s license she had next to no driving experience. This was all discussed ahead of time as we exchanged many emails for 2 months before she arrived and we discussed the driving when we ‘interviewed’ her over Skype. I also wanted her to do some grocery shopping. She knew that driving our older son to school and any activities daily would be required and driving the baby to daycare two days a week. The major problem I am having is that we absolutely need an AuPair who drives and were certainly under the impression she could drive! We were VERY clear about this when choosing an AuPair. Also, she likes to take afternoon naps whenever the baby naps instead of helping out with clean up or meals, which I find irritating, but I suppose I can deal with that. She is helpful around the house when given specific tasks. Our four year old tests her on a regular basis and I hope this relationship will improve, but that is not the problem. I like our AuPair as a person and she is VERY good with the baby. Host parents, what else do you recommend? You need to stand up for yourself and your needs, and he needs to stand up for himself and your family’s needs.Ĭall your LCC, and start the rematch process. There seems to be a gap between what your family needs and what he’s willing to settle for. Host Mom, please sit down and have a long talk with Host Dad. It IS unreasonable to imagine that you can teach someone to drive safely in 4-6 weeks - especially when s/he seems to lack basic driving sense. It isn’t unreasonable to want an au pair who drives competently– especially when that was explicit criteria in your search. And then to consider why they aren’t on the same page and what to do about that. To talk about what accomodations are ‘reasonable’. Time for these host parents to revisit the reasons why they wanted an au pair in the first place.
