[quote=Anonymous]We live in a mini building with 3 floors. We are lucky enough that our kids  4 and 6 have playmates 5 and 7 in the building. The problem is that my youngest has asthma and is prone to pneumonia (has had it twice in 4 years), so we have started a very strict protocol of hand washing, took her out of pre-K, showering parents, brother as soon as they return from work or school, laundering every thing every day, disinfecting door knobs, handles daily, etc etc.   Now, our neighbors although verbally have agreed with me about the extra lengths ,are in practice very loosey-goosey, and their kids try to come over to my place every afternoon (I work from home and would usually allow it), but I am growing significantly anxious and resentful that they are still taking their kids to large gatherings and not being super diligent about contamination.  How can I best approach this with the mom without looking judgy or crazy over reactive.  They are new to the building so although they have heard about my daughter's issues, they haven't seen us when she's in the hospital or wheezing.[/quote]
