Thousands of young women and men come to this country with expectations of a cultural exchange, in the way of an Au Pair, but the rules aren't clear and the agencies dedicated to act as an intermediary between families and au pairs, take monetary advantage of both.
Abuses against au pairs go innoticed and agencies end up acting like legal human traders, where Au pairs are expendable even though their are also, as the families, clients of this agencies.
The Au pairs recive an unfair payment in accordance with the work they do, and most of them work more than the hours that the program admits.
Some of them also have to deal with unfair treatment because of their ethnicity and some even with physical abuse and violence.
