Dear Ted and Amy,
Our family just moved to a new neighborhood and we were thrilled that we have a yard for our kids to play outside, even though the houses are super close. Overall we’ve loved it. But our immediate next door neighbors are a couple with no kids. His wife won’t let him smoke inside, so he comes outside and smokes probably 20 – 25 times a day. He might work overnight or something because he seems to be home a lot. I stay home with my kids and the porch where he smokes is probably 10 feet from our house. Unfortunately I can’t stand the smell of cigarettes – it gives me a headache. I also hate to see our kids getting all of this secondhand smoke. I’ve tried talking to him but he kind of has this “I was here first” attitude. His wife just hates his smoking in general and I think she’s just grateful that he goes outside. Any suggestion on handling this guy and not creating a big neighborhood feud?
Signed,
Smoked Out in Syracuse
