I've been learning Chinese for a little while now and I've met someone online who I've practiced with a lot these past few months. Anyway they've been talking about doing the Aupair system to travel to the US and after doing some cursory research on it, it seems really sketchy and exploitative.
Is anyone more familiar with it and can say that it definitely shouldn't be trusted?
Death to America
It’s extremely exploitative and fucked up but i guess it can be worth it depending on the circumstances that you’re coming from.
I had a rich uncle who had one after another coming from the Balkans every few years to raise his kids for him. 2 of them ended up marrying his nephews (my cousins). The few times i visited his house it seemed like they worked very hard. For not nearly the amount of money that a US citizen would accept to do the same job in terms of per hour pay.
Of course he is a millionaire right wing libertarian brainworm infested freak too.
Right so that just sounds like what I was expecting. Rich dick heads making people do way to much work and then holding their ability to stay over their heads.
