[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They probably think you are the nanny and that therefore, its OK to be rude to you.[/quote] This thought sincerely never occurred to me until now. But you are probably right. [/quote] Really? That was my first thought. You need to go to a condo meeting. DH put the kid to sleep, and make an appearance. When you do, be a force of light and goodwill. Bring cookies. When they ask for new business or whatever, raise your hand. Introduce yourself and your DH and DC, make it CLEAR you are a mommy not a nanny and that you own not rent (if that's true). Then ask how you can contribute to the building. Can you be on a committee? You need to get on their side. In grad school, I lived in a building in Arlington that my friends affectionately called "The Morgue." A bus arrived every Saturday to take the biddies to some casino. Laundry was a NIGHTMARE because they never retrieved their stuff, and had a fit if you dared to do it -- even if you folded it for them. Give it time.[/quote]
