my neighbours kids never stop screaming!!! Driving me insane

I like how you just blame school girls as if they can create babies by osmosis. These unmarried school girls got with unmarried school boys and they are both at fault for making these babies. And of course the school boys run away. Don't just blame the single mothers, it's not a good look.

I have the same exact issue in the apt complex I live in and the mgmt does nothing to curtail the SCREAMING! I am so sick and tired of listening to this constant aggravating, irritating screaming that I'm at my wits end. What do you do? I've even called the police and they do absolutely nothing either. The parent is rude, never watches or disciplines her kids and never says a word about them screaming all the time. She thinks it is just "playing". which it definitely ISN'T! I just can't stand this. When you ask the kids to stop I get profanities yelled at me such as "F You and shut up B____" Anybody have any suggestions??????

Bravo! Well said.

I have the same issue. Screaming kids and the parents are so loud that you hear every word they say inside and outside their house. I have kindly asked the mother and she said she will try. The kids don’t talk, all they know how to do is yell and scream at each other. Then the fighting escolates to all of them in tears because of the bully oldest son, and then they all get told to go inside and there’s a little bit of peace. Isn’t it lovely when they put the trampoline right against the back fence(furthest from their house. These people do anything to try and get your attention or piss you off. I know to ignore everything and don’t respond to anything. These narcissistic neighbours get pleasure out of angering others. So many people in the close neighbourhood have moved due to the yelling. I’ve contactless council and the police and no one is interested in helping. These people make me feel like we have moved into Lollipops play cafe. Wish someone would help.

Same here I have had 8 kids and they never screeched like my neighbours ones , discipline is the key , my dog barks as it sets him off , I let him now especially late when the brats are in bed

I have high pitch screaming neighbours children and they have a barking dog that also barks for ages. A number of us tried to speak to them and left notes. Nothing. So I put on music when they start screaming or the dog barks for hours. It's not music for for children. Bingo they take the dog inside

Damn straight, idocracy knew what it was saying.
but it's got electrolytes!?

It's now almost 10 PM and the neighbors had their grand-kids or I don't know who's kids home the entire day. It has been hell all day long then 30 minutes ago, I have heard someone screaming from the top of their lungs and thought somebody was being murdered. I live in a street that was always quiet so I have almost called the police. Once in the street I realized what was happening. The children were "playing " in the garden.
I have the most uneducated, rude, selfish people in town as neighbors. They moved in a few years AGO AFTER 7 YEARS of building works from 6 AM to 10 PM. They have no education, there is no way to communicate with them as they themselves are animal.
Tonight I have decided to not go down alone. I have used a saucepan and a metal spoon, placed myself behind the shared wall and started hitting on it as hard as I could hoping for other neighbors to come to complain to me so I could let them hear what happens on the other side of the wall.
After 10 minutes, they realized I was so determined, and had nothing to lose so they took their kids in!
Never try to talk to people like that, all you will get is "they are just kids playing" or "you are crazy".

Can't seem to make up your mind, can you? Plus, who are you to tell that blamin' single moms isn't a good look? All those s**ts who you posted about deserve to be blamed.

Correct, although I'm sick of the word "autism".

I'd rather that you not post twice.

Can't you make up your mind?

I've been working with children for 20+ years. Yes, children are naturally loud little humans, but there's general laughing, screaming, etc. and having a neighbour whose child screams like they're auditioning for a Saw movie all the time. I live within walking distance of 5 playgrounds. One is less than a one minute walk away. My neighbour let's their kids play in the small space that's in between all the buildings. The noise bounces off all the buildings and even with every window shut I can hear the screaming as if the child were right next to me. It's not even a child from my building but a neighbouring building. Because this is from another building I can't find the parents to talk to them directly.

Your answer is absolutely out of line! It's snarky, unhelpful and assumes the OP has never spent time around children. Let me guess, you're the parent with the children that scream non-stop and you could take it them to the nearby playground, but it's not convenient for you? Was that not a nice assumption? Then don't make other assumptions about others!

Of course, children with mental issues may scream at the top of their lungs regardless of the situation they're in and this is a different story. However, I can 100% guarantee you that children can be taught how to have different levels of their voices for different situations. The trick is quite simple, be involved and re-enforce good behaviour. I get that parents are busy and need time to just kick the kids out so they can do important things like cook dinner. However, there's no reason that extra energy can't be burnt out in a quick 10 minute playground session after school and then the child be told to play and have fun, but no screaming afterwards.

Children definitely need space to scream and let loose. Do your neighbours really need to be a part of that or should they be part of a lesser version of it? Why isn't it possible to give really loud and rowdy children a bit of time to let it out before going home or to take them to a better space to really be loud and have fun? Why is it that parents get to just say "kids are loud" and we're all supposed to understand when the children are being loud beyond reason?

There is room for compromise and your snarky comment is absolutely unacceptable.

Yeah the darn ENUs making that racket ****
