about kids having tantrums in the garden

[GretchenWiener]

bloody take them inside.

i am not po faced
I am just thinking shut up screechy kid.

i dont even know whither it cometh.
its just loud

I thought the appropriate reaction was just to be relieved it wasn't your child (this time)?

Let's face it, I'm in a terrace with walls so thin I can hear next door weeing. Yes, really. Moving my child inside for tantrumming is going to be no less annoying!

i think that is it. I am long past this stage

Tbh OP, I wouldn't want neighbourly relations with you. You sound like a judgy cah!

i am. yes I am.

We can still hear tantrums in the house. I'd rather hear tantrums outside TBH. They're all at it some days, doesn't bother me.

I can hear my neighbours taps running if my house is quiet, there's no way of hiding a tantrum.

this was my best ever card, speaking as a po faced judgy cah, and all

YABU and a bit ridiculous.

i am a po faced ridiculous judgy cah

looks downward

Ha - just looked at the time. Double checked. Yup that could have been my kids. Even better we have a green area in front of the house and one had a strop there while we took photos of the other one.

Was it me? :D

meglet are you my next door neighbour?

i am a po faced ridiculous judgy cah who jogs.

zzz

So if i blasted out screamy rock every hour or so, you wouldnt mind?

i am to fuck off or jog off ?

i am confused.
the mother was employing a counting method, it didnt work,

Don't be so silly Gretchen you are in control of screamy rock. You have a volume control and whilst it may surprise you to know this, children don't. My children are autistic. I'm so fucking glad I don't live next to you but next to someone who understands and who, when they were younger would help, just as I do with hers now.

If it were someone i KNEW, hmm that would be different.
It just a noise from yonder as I said already.

It's bad enough dealing with a tantrum without having to worry that the neighbours are judging you over the fence.

If you can't cope with normal family noise, go and live in the middle of a big empty field somewhere.

Otherwise, have some compassion.

oh SOME music is. maybe even worse.
this was a child SCREAMING in fury.
and the mother rationalising. Ineffectively.
