Hello. This may seem long winded and abit of a moan, not really sure what I'll get from this but I am getting to the end of my teather to be honest.
We live in a lovely caldi-sac, majority of our neighbours are amazing and I consider them family. We have a house in the street who have a 4, almost 5 year old child.
I'll try to keep this as short as possible.
Now their little boy comes around, but I have had to put a stop to this as he has been spitting, telling my daughter and her other friends mean things (I'll stab you etc, etc), swearing and just overall abit too much.
He is left to his own devices majority of the day and will swing on our front gate and call her, will come in the garden whilst I have explained this is not okay as I have small dogs running free and my daughter doesn't want to play right now.
Not a peep from the parents who do not leave the house, but when he has taken toys from our garden and ran into his house with them, I have heard the parents say 'he doesn't understand' and plaster all over social media about his 'autism' journey.
He is left to run up, down and across the street without supervision. Has been going though our own and neighbours bins, plays with rubbish, knocks houses and then runs away and will follow people up and down the street. Once again, not a word from parents. I have had to shout across to him multiple times when he has run in front of cars, was putting his face into our neighbours fence who own an unfriendly dog.
The parents are not approachable and have twist everything back to 'he doesn't understand, it's his autism and adhd' and will blast you on social media. Now I know people will call be a cow with me saying that, I am not saying he doesn't have what the parents are claiming. But to constantly post (when I had them as friends on social media) about this, and then let him unsupervised almost all day is wrong.
I don't know what to do. We take other neighbours along with us on walks and days out, and have always been friendly and allowed our garden to be open to the children but now it is too much.
As I was writing this he has come in our garden and taken our ball and he and the parents refused to give it back! I have had a titfull and not sure what I can do.
Would social services look at his? Their two other children still of young age are left to go out alone and have both been reported 'missing' by the mum and were brought back by police but nothing seems to have ever been raised as it is worse now.
