[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also clicked thinking it was my neighbors! We have a fenced in area for our yard, and they don't, but we share a driveway. So their yard is open to our driveway, while ours is not. They have this amazing swing set. We do our best not to go out there unless they are playing in it (and they are always inviting us to join them), but it makes me so uncomfortable when they are not there. The tough part is, it doesn't make sense for us to get a play yard, b/c we know the kids will just flock to the neighbor's house. So, I try to buy joint toys that we can put in the shared space so their DD can use them too. I should say, we are also very close with them. We usually do a group cookout a few times a week, have them over often, and hang out with each other's kids often. We've even had them stay at our house while they remodeled. So, it's definitely different. It would be much harder if we weren't this friendly with them.[/quote] You describe a reciprocal relationship. Totally different. OP's situation is one-sided. The other family uses and attends events but has never had anyone to their home. We have a family like this and they get offended when somebody doesn't invite them. HELLO-they've never once hosted. ANything. The one time people were on the porch (invited)--the wife screamed that everyone was too loud. Unbelievable. Pushy as hell to get invited to our events but never return the favor.[/quote]
