DEAR AMY: We live on a street with on-street parking in front of the houses, as well as private driveways
We have lived here for more than 10 years and basically park peacefully wherever we want to, including using the available on-street parking. We all do that.
We just got new neighbors who seem to want to claim the two spaces in front of their house.
They have posted notices on Facebook and NextDoor, including photos of our cars.
This is really nervy, in my opinion, and I’m not sure how to react.
I don’t want to be a bad neighbor.
– Unsure Neighbor
DEAR UNSURE: In my opinion, your neighbors are the ones who should worry about being a “bad neighbor.” They are nervy and entitled, and perhaps you should let them know how you feel about these directives by parking wherever you want to park – as long as it is legal and allowable.
