There is a house that backs on to several other houses mine being one of them. Every summer once the schools are out our gardens become no go zones. They have a few children who scream and scream and scream. You can't read a book, listen to music, or relax in the sunshine without your ears being assaulted.
I'm a mother and one of five myself, so by no means do I expect children to be quiet but the screeching, squeeling is constant and outrageous. Other neighbours (and it's not just my street but streets whose gardens are back to back with them separated by a jetty have asked them to please be reasonable. Somehow we are supposed to appreciate their chidrens' laughter. It's high pitched screaming that goes on for hours until I can't use my garden now, the noise is unbearable. AIBU or are the parents' for not teaching these children that they are cool to enjoy their gardens but to keep the screeching down? I chose my words carefully to accurately describe the noise. The parents just don't give a hoot.
