Neighbours!

Right I need advise cause am so so worried.

My son has autism and adhd, he does yell and shout a lot and where we stay there a group of kids they get on some days then don't a woman has now made a petition and sent it round neighbours to get us evicted. Am absolutely bricking it. Can she do this? I do discipline him he's not malicious he just struggles keeping friends they hurt him he hurts them back.

Today she had a stone in her hand threatening him and let her 14 year old son nip him until he bled. She also called him a ginger bastard and told him he had no soul and wanted him to die.

I have phoned 101 to make a complaint about her but am generally so scared incasw they all sign it and we are homeless.

What's my rights guys? Can she do this? And what should I be doing?

Hope someone can help me xxx

She won’t be successful getting you evicted. Landlords don’t want to evict tenants, it’s a hassle.

What she is doing is trying to intimidate you which is bang out of order. She sounds like a nasty piece of work, but unfortunately some people in this world are nasty and there’s not much we can do about it. Can you find a way of avoiding her? And her nasty kid?

You can call citizens advice helpline and they can formally advise your rights. But having had a neighbour who was literally smashing up his property, selling drugs from the doorstep and burgling neighbours’ houses, trust me it’s hard to get a neighbour evicted even with grounds.

Unlikely you would be evicted on the weight of a petition.

Contact the police again about the threats.

Having said that, if DS is regularly hurt by other DC and DS regularly hurts others he needs more supervision and support and potentially less interaction with that group of DC.
