M: How are your new neighbors?
W: They seem nice enough, but they have a son who is driving me crazy.
M: What do you mean?
W: He comes home every night around one o’clock with his car windows rolled down and the radio at full volume. It stops as soon as he turns his car off, but by then, the kids are wide awake.
M: Oh, no.
W: Sometimes it takes me until 2:00 a.m. just to get the kids settled down again.
M: Have you tried talking to them?
W: We haven’t even met them yet, except to say a quick hello. I hate to annoy them and start the neighborhood badly.
M: You are not going to like them when you do meet them if you keep on hiding your dissatisfaction.
W: I know, but I feel stupid complaining. It seems that he’s not blasting his stereo all night.
M: You said yourself it’s driving you crazy.
W: Well, you know how early I have to be here at the office. I just haven’t got enough sleep and neither have the kids.
M: Maybe you could go over sometime with a little gift or something. Then you could ask about their son, whether they have other children, and they will be sure to ask about yours.
W: Yes, and then what?
M: And then you could mention that the hardest thing at this stage is getting your kids to go to sleep at night.
W: And keeping them asleep.
M: That’s the idea! And you should do it soon. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to do it politely.
