To ask what the acceptable time is for kids being in the trampoline on the garden on a weekend?

[JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows]

Next door's kids were out at 8am on the trampoline. Neighbour on their other side is hoping I'll kick off about it with her (we are friendly and she messaged me). But I think 8am is actually ok, but no sooner. I CBA with a neighbourly dispute (plus my kids are gobshites any given day of the week)

Thoughts on an acceptable time?

8 on a Sunday?
No fucking way is that cool

No noisy play outside before 10 was my rule.
My three were the only young children in a very quiet street and the other residents were all here long before we were. I didn't want to become the nuisance neighbour.

10am-7pm.

8am is fine, I don't get the problem?

I think it’s too early and it’s inconsiderate of people who might not want to be woken up by noisy children. If your neighbour has an issue though then she should address it directly with them

As I'm out walking the dogs at 6.30am every weekday before work I love a slightly longer lie on the weekends and time to just enjoy some peace so 10am on a weekend for me.

The thing is, how pissed off you are probably depends on if you are up, or not.

I don't have small children. I'm not feeling great today and I got up - after a bad night - at 10.00am. It's Sunday and I don't have plans.

I'd have been well fucked off at being woken two hours earlier by kids next door on the trampoline.

I think before 9.00am is unreasonable at a weekend.

When mine were young I didn't let them out before 10am at the weekend, neighbours were all childless and I was thinking of them resting having worked all week.

Well now mine are grown and the neighbours have had children and some have moved in with young children and there really is no consideration.

Ndn 3 kids are out from 7am EVERY DAY, they jump till 8.30am before school and ALL DAY at the weekend, the other side pretty similar but will come out at 9am on the weekend.

One side blow tin whistles while jumping, one has an American accent who whines when she wants something, the other one just cries constantly. It's a fucking PITA, my kids do be going mental as no teenager stirs that hour of the morning at the weekend.

We purposely picked this estate many years ago as it was always quiet and most didn't have children. Oh how things have changed. I personally think 8am is too early. If your neighbours don't have young kids this is the middle of the night for them, it's only people with young kids who have been up for a few hours think 8am is like lunch time.

8 am seems fine to me. Ours are outside from above that time when weather allows it.

I wouldn’t let mine out at 8 unless heavily supervised. I’d say 9 on a Saturday and 10 on a Sunday. 8 on a non bank-holiday holiday weekday.

I think 8am is very inconsiderate. I'd probably go for 9.30 at a push, or ideally 10am. Any earlier than 9am is really selfish, I think.

If you weren't bothered by it though, I wouldn't get involved. No need to make trouble where it isn't necessary! Let your other neighbour fight her own battles!

I think 9 am is acceptable.

I wouldn't let mine out until 9am, and even then don't let them make a lot of noise, but I don't think 8am is early enough to actually complain.

My NDN's kids are out making an almighty racket until 10pm in the summer (and I have three asleep before 8pm), so I sometimes think about letting the DC go for it at 7am, but I don't, out of consideration for the other neighbours.

@MrsOmelette

I say not in the garden before 9am on a Saturday and 10am on a Sunday.

This

8am is far to early. It could be your only chance of a lay in all week. No mowing lawns or building or screaming kids outside till least 9.

I'm in the 9 Sat / 10 Sun camp

I think if you have small kids you forget about lying in but I was first up this morning at 9:15 - I wouldn't want to be woken by screaming kids at 8am! My teens wouldn't appreciate it either

For my kids....anytime goes, but we have no neighbours. I think anytime after 9am would be fine in a built up area.

8am way to early at the weekend.

It's too early but if it doesn't bother you, don't get involved.
I'd be annoyed at being woken up at 8am at the weekend

This is why I won’t have a trampoline

I guess it depends how noisy your neighbourhood is - and how noisy your children are on the trampoline. 9am seems early enough on a Sunday. 8 probably a bit early. I certainly wouldn’t mow my lawn until 10ish, but that could be a lot noisier than a couple of quiet kids on a trampoline.

Definitely don’t complain to your neighbour if it doesn’t bother you. Not worth making a fuss just to support your other neighbour!

Well it's too early but if it's a one off I'd be more pissed off with the next neighbour for wanting you to do something about it. She sounds like one of those annoying people who would want you to say "Please wait until later" and then when the middle neighbour said to her "JMM at number 6 thinks my kids shouldn't play out what do you think?" shed play it like she didnt think it was too early and agree with her.

8am is fine, I don't get the problem?

Because some of us don't have small children and like a peaceful Sunday morning.

As I said above even when I did have small children, it was 10am or nothing in our house. I'd like to think I'm a considerate neighbour and understand people that don't have little ones might just be having a late sleep in.

9 o'clock onwards any day of the week.

9am at the very earliest. 10am if you’re a decent human being. But why does your neighbour expect you to sort it for her?
