Nosey fucking NDN.

[Bluebluered]

AIBU to want to go in my garden, jump on the trampoline with my kids, play football or whatever without twitching fucking curtains and a live audience.

I’m sick to fucking death of them. I can’t afford tall bamboos or something to create a screen so they can’t look into our garden.

Just jumped on the trampoline for literally 1 minute (jiggling body and all) and I can see the little shit moving their net curtains to catch an eye ful of me in my jiggling glory. Gave them a death stare and walked off inside pissed off now because the parents do it too, so I won’t expect them to tell their little shits to stop being nosey.

I wouldn't care, they're only kids and can't help looking (I would probably watch if I saw an adult neighbour trampolining to be honest).

Next year grow the tallest sunflowers in the cheapest pots all along the fence. They'll give you some privacy during the months when you're most likely to be in the garden at least.

Just go out there and sod them - eventually they’ll get fed up of it and if they do comment just tell them life is too short to be dull —like them—

I’ve realised this and now no one bats an eyelid if I go round the park run/skate/scoot track on dd’s Y scootet

Do it topless, that’ll give them something to look at 😂 seriously though I would give them a little wave so they know you can see them - it might put them off x

Why would you stop because they watched you? Just ignore them, and enjoy your bounce

The irony of you complaining they are watching you, whilst you are looking into their windows.

Just ignore them. You must be looking into their garden to realise that they're even looking at you....

I also trampoline with my kids and don't really care if anyone watches

Chill out!

What a weird reaction to have

You're being ridiculous. Who cares if they take a peek? Ignore and do what you want.

You are annoyed that children are looking out of their window. How weird. I can't imagine that are that interested in you really. Maybe they were just wondering what the noise was or something.

As pp said - chill out.

It's hard to ignore what goes on outside your windows. Your attention is caught by movement, then you look until your brain has worked it out.

Hang on this was a kid? Kids look out windows, is that really so bad?

Lol. This happened to me years ago. Had a bounce on my daughters trampoline. I was wearing a vest and no bra. I saw next doors lodger have a peak out his bedroom window and then try to hide when I saw him.

I was also a bit pissed off but my husband bellowed with laughter and said blunt you're bouncing up and down on the trampoline. He's probably videoed it and sent it viral.

People will have a look,. Fuck if my next door neighbour was bouncing up and down on a trampoline I'd probably look too. 😂

If it's a kid and he's stuck indoors he probably just wants to join in and have fun. Invite him to come and play

Maybe the noise of the trampoline drives them crazy.

Save up for a sail canopy.

Boy are you weird .

YABU .

So you’re bouncing on a trampoline
But at same time keeping a sneaky eye on twitching curtains to see if your being “spied” in!

It sort of reminds me of when a child in my class complains that another child is looking at them. I point out that they are looking at the other child to know that they are looking at them. The response is usually a confused child wondering why I haven't told the other child off yet!

You're way overreacting to a child having a glance out of the window.

If you want total privacy you need to buy a detached house in the middle of nowhere.

It’s not just once though...every time we go out they start staring out the window. And I know the parents do it too From comments the mum has made in the past. She would only know these things if she’s been looking into our garden.

Every time the kids go outside, ndn little brats start shouting out their window at them, asking nosey questions like, why do you have this in your garden, why has X gone inside, why is X crying, why is X laughing etc etc etc. They don’t play in their own garden because the parents are too lazy to clean it up.

Last time I invited them around out of pity (as some of you have suggested to invite them around 🙄), one of them spent the whole time running inside to me tell taling about every little thing my son was doing. Petty things.

It’s been weeks since I’ve been outside due to rain and work and tiredness and I’m pissed off. Maybe overreacting due to everything building up.

They sound lonely and probably jealous that your children have wonderful toys to play with. I feel for you as it's an invasion of privacy but I doubt they're doing it to upset you.

Start waving give them the finger at them, they'll soon stop.

Wow you’re having a very strong reaction to this 😬 agree they’re nosey but sod them! Don’t invite them round, just ignore them.

Yeah OP adjust buy a new house in the middle of nowhere, completely practical solution offered up every time someone on mumsnet complains about a neighbour.

That said you’re really overreacting, just try and ignore it, they’ll go away. Unless you’re doing something incredibly captivating and entertaining that you’ve not mentioned

Obviously OP isn’t going to invite the child over to play, she doesn’t like him
