I will admit that we have not always been perfect with our neighbors. We have done things to them, they have done things to us. Through the years we have learned (or tried) to just ignore them in order to keep the peace. The problem is that their kids (teens) don't seem to want peace. They take every opportunity when we are out in the yard or on the porch to remind of things we did wrong or what they don't like about us. I have had all I can take because it is like they have memory loss about all the crap they have done to us over the years. The girl is just doing this to impress her new boyfriend. Do I let them have it and remind them of all the crap we have had to take from them-or continue ignoring them?

Continue to ignore them. Some people just like drama. When you are outside, put your iPod on. If they come your way, turn your back to them and continue with your yard work or whatever you're doing. Do NOT engage them in an argument or even speak to them. They'll get the message. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Thanks, my sister said the same thing, but I wanted a second opinion. I think ignoring them is best also. After all, if I respond it just gives them more ammo. to stick in our faces. Thanks again.

You are welcome. Really, ignoring them is the best thing. It's pretty damn hard to have an argument with yourself!

or next time she's with her boyfriend, ask him if he knows about the other boys she brings home. Tell him that you like him the best because he seems nice.

hehe... nah... just ignore them. Hoping they'll grow up is probably the only thing you can do.
