[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 550435, member: 1233"] Janet, the way that you feel is why I wrote this post. I don't want the neighbors to feel chased or that I am telling them what to do in their own homes. They DO stand in the stairways to smoke though and I have no clue as to why. There is a little metal pail that is almost overflowing with buttz sitting in the rear stairwell though. Another neighbor has claimed that for his storage also, so he has bags of clothing, baby gear like exersaucers and strollers there and it can be a challenge to get past the smokers and the stuff sometimes. The fan is a great idea, but this smoke comes in even if we haven't opened the door at all. I have lived in apartments for years and have never had this issue or had neighbors who smoked in ndoor common areas. I will try talking to them, but honestly, if that doesn't work I won't allow my kids' health to be impacted just to keep from upsetting the neighbors. The neighbors are not that important to me. I very much appreciate your insight and advice, and will do my very best to work this out in a friendly way so that it is just between neighbors. We are already spending our $$ on weatherstripping and other things to make it harder for the smoke to get in. We don't open our windows often because the pollen makes thank you quite sick, and honestly, I don't feel it is asking a lot to ask people to not smoke by our doorway. It just isn't that much to ask given the enormous impact asthma attacks have on people. [/QUOTE]
