[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, recently our dear old neighbor moved away. We were pretty close, and both had kids that would play together. Sadly, her job transferred her, and so the family moved away.

So a few months late, a young couple moved in. They seem very friendly and reached out to us the very first day. 
Anyway, while they are friendly, my big problem is that both of them are really heavy smokers and just stand out on their stoop smoking every hour or so. I don't think this is appropriate for a small community where children are being raised and often run across neighbor's yards playing. I don't want my kids (Ages 12, 11, and 7) to have the second hand smoke risk, plus I do not want to have the adult influence of smokers living next door.

Is there any polite way for me to ask them to smoke inside or in other areas?[/quote]

One of the best threads ever.  No one could be so stupid to think that they can control what people do on their front stoop.  The chance of second hand smoke affecting your little darlings an entire yard away are so slim that its non existent.[/quote]
