Neighbors are nice - but bad influence - how to handle?

Turn this into a teaching phase. Teach DD about diversity and accepting differences among people. It's okay.

OP, you have described how they are on the outside but maybe they are really good people who allow their children to be children. I don't think it is any of your business to criticize them if they have a beer. Personally, if I were either of them and you were my neighbor, I might indulge in a pitcher of martinis every night. You sound like an insuferable snob.

Did you read the OPs post? She said she liked these people - just didn't care that they were filthy slobs.
