Kids screaming in garden next door!

[WorkHardPlayHard1]

So for the 5th time this Spring/Summer, the kids next door are playing happily and very loudly in the garden next door directly into the open door of my kitchen.

I really like the adult neighbours (their parents) and really don't want to fall out with then.

Any suggestions of how to approach this as can't bear the idea of a full Summer of screeching kids! They are 10 and 7! 😬

To all the parents who manage to have kids that don’t scream send some tips my way.
I think this is absolutely crazy.
kids scream it’s what they do whether anyone’s going to tell me different.
move house to the middle of nowhere

It’s always hair washing, isn’t it?!

”My eyes!! Mummeeeeee!! It stings! Water is too hot, no I meant too cold.”
occasionally I think “fine, have dirty hair! What do I care?” 🤣🤣

We have two young teen boys next to us who are out playing basketball a lot. I honestly just think how nice it is that they're not inside on screens all the time

It is really annoying. Screaching kids are the worst.

Wait . . . Have I missed something?? Nobody has commented on how intolerant the UK is when it comes to kid noise.

Damn. I've checked off 'noise cancelling headphones', 'move to the country' and thought I was on my way to a MN full house. 😂

Seriously, op, just ask them politely if they can calm things down.

I've introduced some of the neighbour kids to Slipknot by blaring it with the windows open during their screaming matches and fights. I'll have them singing along to People = Sh!t in no time!

This is perfect! 😂😂😂

What so it's bad parenting to teach your children consideration for others?? I was the same, 2 boys, happy to let them play out and be kids but screaming and shouting at the top of their lungs = not ok!!
The problem is when you're expecting the noise you're almost waiting for it and it can seem much worse than it is. At the end of the day excessive noise can and does affect the enjoyment of your home and garden. I'm in exactly the same position and am trying to move! As we speak I have next doors kids kicking their football onto my lean to roof (on purpose). I just wouldn't of let my kids behave that way but I guess some parents don't care!

Kids being brought up with manners and consideration for the environment they live in.
How rude.

If they polish you can use „POLISH REMOVER” 🤣
