[quote=Anonymous]We live in a neighborhood like this and it’s mostly wonderful. Sometimes it gets old. Sometimes kids ring the doorbell too early or too late, come tromping through the house w dirty shoes on, make messes/break or damage things (by accident, mostly but just bc kids often do mess stuff up), sometimes kids are rude and I don’t like to have to correct them or tell them house rules or be a school marm in my own home. My kids know our house rules but other kids usually don’t and it’s kind of annoying to have to go over rules w other kids who aren’t my own. Sometimes I want to just be in my own house/yard w my own kids not other people’s kids all the time. And it often messes up our family dinners or plans for a family outing. BUT my kids love it and I’m glad they have unstructured free play time w other kids. [/quote]
