To think it’s not normal to be this angry?

I’m a terraced house and my neighbors one side are constantly screaming/shouting/swearing at their kids and each other. I understand everyone argues and loses their rag sometimes but surely it’s not normal to be this angry ALL the time? They started at 7am this morning, I have to turn the tv up to drown them out. I feel so sorry for the kids, they think growing up in a house like that is normal 😭 AIBU or is that just the norm nowadays?!

Just makes me feel so sad for the kids, the youngest is only a toddler. From what I gather the partner isn’t any of the children’s dads either.

Absolutely not normal. Once in a while ok. Not daily. Not even weekly.

Really interested to hear the point of view from the person that voted in unreasonable, do you think this level of daily anger is normal?

Really awful - and not at all normal no.

It’s awful.

I would say it's normal for some people.
But that doesn't make it right, especially when there are children having to live through it.
