We moved to our new house 2 weeks ago. From being in the countryside on the edge of open fields to a terraced house near town. I have 3 children and they're finding it quite tough to adjust. The road we've moved to is quiet and there's no through road so the kids are able to ride around on their scooters or so I thought.
This morning I got a really horrible letter through the door from 'a group of concerned neighbours' though I suspect it may just be a couple. Saying my children were not being supervised, were out of control, they were sending a copy of the letter to the police and social services and I was neglectful and being unlawful.
On tues the kids were out until 915pm but it's the holidays and we had friends over (one of whom is a social worker in childrens services! she thought it was great that the kids could play out) I just feel gutted. The letter said they were out until 910pm in failing light on their scooters being unsupervised.
I want to move. It's horrible to think people would think such awful things. My kids are lovely and really good, polite etc. They're 9,10 and 12 and were just outside the house, I was inside with the door open. I feel so upset but don't know what to do. The letter was anonymous which makes me really cross.
