Nosy neighbour or rightfully concerned?

[sosmooth]

I work from home part time so obviously I'm in the house during the day. I have a neighbour who moved in three doors down about a year ago. I barely see her but she's home all day too. I've noticed that she has visitors 5 to 6 times a day, usually the same 2 guys and at last a few times a week a girl with a young baby. I notice this because the men ALWAYS park in front of my house as there's never any parking anywhere else and my desk is right in front of the window.
This itself doesn't bother me. What does bother me is the noise when they're laughing or talking loud enough for me to hear 3 doors down because her windows are always wide open even in this cold weather. Also they seem to be coming and going a lot all day and are sometimes clearly out of it, as in on drugs.She has her two daughters over 2 nights a week and my next door neighbours son has asked them to play out numerous times but apparantly theyre not allowed out ever. I fear they may be taking drugs even when theyre there.
i want to report it to someone but my DH says to keep my nose out. Am I just being a nosy bitch?

Not sure exactly what you would report?

Her taking or selling drugs from that house with her two children present?

And what actual evidence do you have beyond visitors visiting?

Most drug users don't visit multiple times a day, or arrive in cars.

So the same two people tend to visit her numerous times a day? I’d say that was strange. Who has time for that? Are you sure they don’t all live there?

I'm not convinced you have enough to go on here. It is a bit speculative.

But if you did have more substantial concerns then you should make a call to social services. Not embellish or anything. Just give facts.

(I'm sure some will turn up and tell you to never ever ever call social services ever because it's a sign you think you're a perfect parent and other such shite, but they'll not act if there's nothing and if there's something then the professionals know).

They definitely don't live there. They leave at some point as the cars gone overnight and then back in morning or midday. When the girl with the baby comes she pulls a pram out of the car and takes it in with her but she doesn't live there either.
I fully admit works a bit slow at the moment and I've been noticing who comes and goes a lot more .
Maybe I am being a nosy cow but it just seems strange that grown adults have time to do this all day long.

And no I have absolutely no proof of anything at all. I just worry for her children

Maybe they work at night? Do you actually see them go in and out of the house lots of times a day? Maybe the girl is a bored relative? Maybe the tenant has issues and they go round to keep her company?

and are sometimes clearly out of it

In what way?

yes I do see them go in and out because the car moves from the front of my house and half an hour or an hour later they're back.
I understand keeping her company but who the heck has time to do that everyday? I don't know if they come at weekends as I'm usually out from morning to evening.

Also when you drive past you can always see them sat upstairs and they are usually sat looking out of the window and talking.(This has been noticed by a neighbour living opposite too)

It sounds as though she has overnight contact twice a week?

There may have been issues, lack of supervision etc that means she is reluctant to let the children play out.

If you didn't see your children much, you'd want to be with them, when they are with you.

"I understand keeping her company but who the heck has time to do that everyday?"

Someone who is unemployed? They might sell a bit of something and be going to drop off.

There's been a reason why she has lost residency of her children, probably addiction.

I don't understand what you think you need to report?
