Our aupairs continue to watch the election process in the US as developments play out in the media. As residents of other countries, they might follow similar election processes, but none so “American” as ours.

Aupairs, this is a good time to discuss with older children how the election process in your country is similar or different from the process in the US. Perhaps you come from a country that has a king or a queen who never has to be elected or re-elected! Your countrymen probably vote for prime ministers or other officials. Discuss all of this with your host families as we all watch our election returns.
