What is the name of your state? CT
My roommate had the apartment with his wife and daughter. His is divorced and when we both signed a new lease with the landlord his daughter was not mentioned anywhere. He told me she would be here one day a week. I did not think that was a problem. When I moved in he told me that he had a new agreement with his wife and now she would be living here and only visiting his wife. She is about 5 or 6.
Recently I was watching an HBO movie that may have been R rated or something like that. There were unexpected adult type sounds in the movie. He got upset about that and disconnected the TV.
The TV is not the main issue. My problem is that I now find myself living in an apartment with a young child that is not mentioned anywhere in the lease and this is an intrusion on my rights as an adult in an apartment that I pay for. I am thinking what will happen if I bring a girlfriend here. Will that be appropriate or am I now restricted to child safe activities.
I plan to write a letter to the landlord and ask for a reduction in the rent. My roommate was planning to leave in about a month anyway. Perhaps he should leave earlier.
So I am looking for some advice and wisdom on the best way to handle this.
