It is rather dangerous, noisy and vulgar. AIBU to dislike it?

Yanbu

I hate the vulgar noise of other people. Why must they exist? Is a question I ask myself daily.

Screwinthetuna · 13/05/2017 22:27

Yea, kids having fun and playing with friends, definitely vulgar

PurpleDaisies · 13/05/2017 22:27

Vulgar? Seriously?

YANBU.

Get em up chimneys, little beggars.

Yanbu.

My son sits in the corner of the room, not making a noise and pretending he doesn't exist.
People of any age socialising is disgusting.

ProudBadMum · 13/05/2017 22:28

Yes playing out is vulgar... they should be up chimneys

greebgrass · 13/05/2017 22:29

Yes. Horrid.

Children shouldn't be seen or heard. Ever Angry

Creatureofthenight · 13/05/2017 22:29

Gosh OP, that's very goady for your first post on MN.

Radishal · 13/05/2017 22:30

Vulgar? Of course not . Dangerous? Very often.
I wish my dd could play in the street like I did. But I was a child in the 70s.

I don't like to see them on the street. Seems a bit unsafe and they often seem to get up to no good.

I don't let children in the garden - are you mad?? I like to sit out there and admire my rhodedendrums with a glass of pimms. I make the children stay in the (soundproofed obviously) basement.

greebgrass · 13/05/2017 22:33

The garden? But my herbaceous borders!

No. They should be kept in. At all times. On their iPad.

I agree with with you op.

Broken Britain indeed.

Yes, agree Plymouth. I wasn't sure which word to use other than vulgar. But I do think they should be supervised not left to roam around shouting and kicking balls in the roads until it goes dark.
