Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Common House Use Proposal

[Wayne Tyson (landrest]

Coho:

In the alternative, what about lightening up and just asking the occasional 
person who is not pulling his or her weight how life is going for them? Most 
people in law-free situations tend to more, rather than less, and the 
exceptions often have a reason, like health for example, that they don't 
want to talk about, but will if you try getting close to them first, you 
might find that you have increased the community bond rather than bonded the 
community.
