[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP we lived in a nice neighborhood in NW. all of the houses on our street had 2 car garages and driveways. We had a strange tiny 1920s garage that was too low for my car but the neighbors had an addition with a big, new garage and driveway. I had 3 kids 3 and under so really wanted to park close to our steps. Well the au pair from next door parked in front of our steps all of the time. I finally asked her if there was any way she could park in front of her house or in their driveway. She told me that her bosses wouldn’t let her bc her car (which was theirs) was too old and dumpy, they didn’t want it in front of their house. These were big detached houses and because of the curb cuts, [b]I had to park in front of their house and get 2 babies who couldn’t walk yet and a toddler to our steps [/b]bc apparently the jerks thought my car was more presentable than the one they had the au pair drive their kid in. Some people are just weird. [/quote] I am one of those people who thinks the OP is being silly but this is a totally different scenario. The OP doesn't actually want the space in front of her house to park in, she just doesn't want the neighbors to park there. In this case you not only wanted to park in front of your house but had a physical reason to want that space. I think you would have totally been in bounds to ask the neighbors to have the Au Pair park somewhere else. I live in NW where nobody has driveways and firmly believe that nobody has a right to park in front of their house. But if I had to choose between parking in front of my 85 year old neighbor's house and my 50 year old neighbor's house I would choose the latter since the 50 year old has no mobility issues. [/quote]
