To think they are fucking dirty disgusting cunts.

[HeffalumpTheFlump]

I'm nearly 100% sure IANBU but I just want to check as although I'm pregnant I haven't got a child yet so don't know whats normal and what's not.

My neighbours from hell have just had extremely loud sex in the flat above me whilst their one year old screamed and screamed from (I fucking hope) the other room.

This isn't fucking normal is it?? I have had a shitty arsehole cunty horrible day so I'm probably getting too upset about this, but that surely isn't right?!

op yadnbu they both sound like dickheads. i hope tomorrow is a better day for you

I think that because this women is in a violent relationship, the sex may not have be one of consent.

I don't object to the word cunt.

I object to someone in DV situation being called names.

SLeep on it, Heffalump. Get some rest and then come back to it - I don't think you want to actually walk away from the situation, and I can see it's a difficult situation to be in.

You've had a bad day, maybe your choice of words wasn't the best...tomorrow your head will be in a better place and you can make the call and it might be the best call you've ever made for the woman and her LO.

I really wouldn't judge someone in an abusive relationship. It's very easy to sit back on the outside looking and and think "why doesn't she do this or that or just leave". It isn't that simple, as these boards will tell you.

However, if you feel the child is in danger or his needs are not being met, then ye, you do report.

Do he NSPCC do anything? genuine question, do they have any powers? I've always assumed they are an information/education charity.

I can understand your frustration though OP.

NSPCC can refer on to SS.

I think the NSPCC merely pass on info to social services, Holly...but not certain.

Despite the woman being stuck in a DV relationship, does call for sympathy, I would still report this to SS, and not NSPCC, as SS are the ones with the vested interest in this. The woman has a choice, however small, this child has not. How awful for you to hear OP, it reads as sickening, let alone having to hear it.

You need to report every single incident that you hear. My sympathy is 100% with the child in this, who has no power or control over his/her circumstances and nobody either capable of or willing to look out for him. SS being involved does not mean he is safe, as we all know.

Please, please make sure that you report this and any other incidences of child neglect or abuse that you are aware of.

YANBU.

The loud sex you can't really complain about but the fact their child was crying throughout is horrible.
