To get “Revenge” on Neighbours

Nextdoor’s children are “shriekers”, over the top girls (aged 10 and 6) who scream, whine and yell all day long. This afternoon they have been playing and arguing so loud we can hear them over all 4 floors of our house. It’s particularly bad in the living room and they are so loud we can hear them over the television.
It’s constant and annoying.
No SEND, they are just brats whose parents don’t install any boundaries.

AIBU to therefore stream Cardi B’s unedited version of W.A.P to my television and blast it out, repeatedly, at ear splitting full surround sound volume?

4 floors? I feel your pain sister. Must be dreadful not having a single room in the entire townhouse to escape the noise.

I’d love to message the parents and ask if everything is ok with their children as the constant screaming is very worrying and you will be contacting social services if it continues!!! 😇

Or you could behave like an adult and say to the neighbours, I don't know if you're aware but we can hear the children screaming and it's quite startling. Is everything okay and could they maybe tone it down a bit?

Already done that, multiple times.

The op has already explained that the parents have no control over their children and aren’t considerate over how they behave and effect others.
I still dont believe they should be getting punished in that way, exposing them to sexual content is child abuse

This.

And also how do you know there’s no SEND. Is that something people tell their neighbours?
