Help me save my sanity

Our house is by a snickett and all local kids come and play here. This means that we get a barrage of noise from low level to proper screaming and screeching. I am so fed up and don't know what to do. I don't know any of the neighbors to know which kid belongs to whom, so I can speak to them and can't understand for the life of me why kids as little as 2 would be allowed out on their own unsupervised. The snickett is dirty and the kids often use the debris to muck about hence making things even worse. I have spoken to the police so many times as I was concerned about kids safeguarding and obviously fed up of all the noise. It's making me want to move. What would you do?

I had a problem living in a flat where our neighbours upstairs had 3 kids and we heard everything. My soon to be husband and I resolved if we could become friends with them then it wouldn't be annoying it would be kids we j ew having fun. Maybe have some biscuits ready next time and give them something to eat or drink. Once you know them you might learn to love the sounds, instead of hating them. Be neighbourly. Get to know the kids and the families they belong to (then you can talk to them about keeping the noise down too).
