[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you wife was in the right.  I would have done the same.  I bet they won't pull that ish again.  Had it of been me, I would have dumped it right in front of their front door.  You sound like a really annoying DH. [/quote]

Ditto. This is what gave it away - OP says when he has spoken with them in the past, they are reasonable. In other words, they do stuff they should not.

OP mentioning their race makes me wonder if he's giving the neighbors extra leeway because they aren't white. He should not. Equal is equal.

Lastly, as one PP said you pay for trash and recycling. If they had too much, put it in an outdoor trash bag next to the cans. You don't use you neighbor's bins

Ok ... Even if this is true, on what planet is it ok to dump trash on your neighbor's lawn? Do you really think that is a good solution? Is that what you want your kids to learn?[/quote]

When you are dealing with people who think it's OK to place their trash in your bin, you're dealing with people with boundary issues. Sounds like OP has had a run-in with these neighbors before, as OP said the neighbors were reasonable when spoken-to. This reinforces my thought that they have boundary issues.

So there IS no reasonable solution in these types of situations because the other people aren't being reasonable to begin with. What your kids learn is that you are not a constant pushover when people cross the line. [/quote]
