We have a name for that.. It's called "Mommyhood Induced Dementia"  

Oh and i have the worse degree of it! I put something away in a cabinet and then i come bac ten minutes later and i cant find it! I think my husband has it too, i tell him my plan for the day if we go out to get things done and then when i tell him we are going to that place i said i million times we were going, he will say i didnt. Its so stupid. I think we both need a brain transplant!

mind your own business. unless you have tried to hire them and seen their fake papers with your own two eyes or someone in that group itself has told you they're illegal (not another busybody neighbor), you're just making assumptions about people

it reminds me of right after 9/11 when they gave the TIPS line for people to tattle on their neighbors if they saw "something suspicious" ... what does this say about our kind of society?

we're supposed to protect each other and love our neighbors. if they're not stealing from your house or driving drunk and throwing bottles in the street or any actual criminal behavior that would apply to you too, leave them alone. immigration probably would be like, ok heh, thanks and then not do anything about it, but allow you to feel the superiority in tattling on someone who wasn't lucky enough to be born in the place that offers the most opportunities. there are too many people that DESERVE deportation to care about removing people that are just working to put food in their kids mouths and not cause any trouble.

So he has done everything to adapt to the American culture except become a citizen?

If they are living there, not bothering anyone, paying their rent ect, then I would leave them alone. Just becuase there are a lot of people in one house does NOT mean they are illegal. Living in a high cost of living area like I do I see that ALL the time, and I certainly do not think that the only people that do it are illegal immigrants. You do what you have to to afford a place to live.

If they start causing issues call them on that, but until then, I would leave them alone.

Quoting Hoping for a GIRL! 2009:“ Actually a good amount was accredited to the amount of immgrants but i did not once say they were hispanic...I ... [snip!] ... was a bunch of men living in one house, they could be making meth for all i know. I was being a concerned citizen not a racist.”

Wow, you seem very judgemental. I know that before I moved in with my husband he has a bright idea to have about 8 people move into a two bedroom condo "to save on rent." This very well could be what they are doing. Maybe this is how they can afford their nice cars? I am all for reporting illegals, however they need to do more to be reported then just mearly living with a bunch of other people and parking their cars on their lawns. Why don't you go introduce yourself to them and take them some cookies. You know, they say that they best way to avoid crime is to know your neighbors. Try that.

Quoting Hoping for a GIRL! 2009:“ Lol at suburban....hun i live in the sticks, its 15 minutes to the closest gas station, 30 minutes to ... [snip!] ... there are plenty of nice houses and other avaliable housing much closer to work, especially with the gas prices these days?”

Well, in California they buy up housing in the desert and what not and about 10 years later boom, desert suburbs.

What are ordinances in your city about cars and where they're parked? If you make a complaint and police make a routine stop out of it, then they will see something up and you will have not had to really do anything...also, are they renters? B/c I'm pretty sure their landlord wouldn't be happy to realize how many people are actually living in their house. I realize these are round-about ways to get it checked out by someone other than yourself - that's the point.

Quoting Kelli Jo *RUFF*:“ oh no! Not the "illegals!" Unless they are bothering you or the neighborhood why would you call?”

Because they're ILLEGAL.
If they want to live in the U.S. then they should get citizinship.

Quoting Mrs. C:“ So he has done everything to adapt to the American culture except become a citizen?”

She said the process had something to do with going back to Mexico and it could take awhile.. It's really actually pretty difficult to get citizenship.. My husband's boss just had a helluva time getting it for his Brazilian wife.. The time and the runaround was redic..

Quoting Jessimica691:“ Because they're ILLEGAL. If they want to live in the U.S. then they should get citizinship.”

If it were easy to become legal don't you think these people would do it?

What, are you pissed cause they all have jobs doing shit that you wouldn't deign to do?

Quoting Hoping for a GIRL! 2009:“ Okay I live in a real nice subdivision and ive noticed something about my new neighbors and im not sure ... [snip!] ... things that are illegal. Should i call INS and see if they are legitimate ppl or ignore it and hope that im completely wrong?”

So because they have 8 cars you think they're illegals? Do you have any other reasons for feeling this way?

Quoting TokyoRose♥:“ i think you should.my mom was a head supervisor with INS and some of the stories she told me about the ... [snip!] ... illegals can stay in our country. you should call and if they are all legal then there shouldn be anything to worry about..”

More disturbing than the things legal citizens do?
