Loud-ass brats

Yesterday I had a mostly very pleasant day. I spent a long time at the park, much of it around the duck pond. The only bad thing was a couple times when particularly loud children came near me. The kind who yells at top volume instead of talking and is constantly fucking yelling. These kids are always the ones who also run around like maniacs without a break. One of them was chasing the ducks, and she looked plenty old enough to know better. At least Duh came along after a few minutes to scold the duck chaser and tell her to go back to Moo. It looked like there was several kids in the family and the parents were overwhelmed. That made me think of something I've noticed. If there are 3 or more kids in a family usually one of them is the "problem child" ; noticeably brattier than the others and needing constant attention and correction. The other screamer at the park was the youngest of three. What a great reason not to breed a litter. How does anyone live with a kid like that without going completely fucking batshit insane? I realize the park is an outdoor public place so nobody can tell the kids to be quiet, but it was still fucking annoying. There were lots of other kids around who managed not to be totally irritating little shits.

The warm weather does bring the little bastards out, doesn't it? I have the issue of a guy who decided to build a play set on the far end of his property, which happens to be right by my kitchen windows. It's basically just like living next to a fuckin' playground. His grandbrats come over to play on the damned thing, and shriek like there's no tomorrow. It gets extremely wearing on me. What's even worse, is that their moo encourages them to scream, by chasing them around the yard and screaming herself. It drives me insane.

I've blasted music really loud when I hear it, but I don't even think they notice. I've shut the windows, which can be hot, but I'm limited because the guy is a general dickhead and I don't want a 'fear thy neighbor' incident to take place.

If it gets bad this year, I'll check into whether or not he's even entitled to do something like that. As far as I know, it's alright to build a playset, but it's so close to my fuckin' house, that I'm thinking it may be some kind of bylaw violation.

I remember in Halifax, NS, the city built a basketball court up to the end of a line of houses and there was a lawsuit over it.

I hope you would like classical music. the little bastards nowadays don't seem to care for that...
I recommend 'Pictures at an Exhibition' and 'Night on Bald Mountain'. LOUD

CERTIFIED HOSEHEAD!!!

people (especially women) do not give ONE DAMN about what they inflict on children and I defy anyone to prove me wrong

Dysfunctional relationships almost always have a child. The more dysfunctional, the more children.

The selfish wants of adults outweigh the needs of the child.

Some mistakes cannot be fixed, but some mistakes can be 'fixed'.

People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one. Leo J. Burke

Adoption agencies have strict criteria (usually). Breeders, whose combined IQ's would barely hit triple digits, have none.

LOL. I've been thinking about using heavy, acid jazz or opera as a way of dealing with it, but I personally hate those genres myself, and I'd probably drive myself crazy if I had to listen to them myself.

I do enjoy some classical, however. We have some decent classical music around the house. I have to go see if I can dig them up.

Unfortunately, a lawsuit would probably not work in my situation, because the guy built it on his property (albeit much closer to my house than his own) and the noise isn't regular enough, because it's his grandbrats.

I have an even bigger problem with some yahoos living next to him, and across from me. They're college aged kids, and they have NO respect for the other people in the neighborhood. They are loud, and drink excessively in their backyard during the summer. They'll go at it very late at night. My husband has gone out there VERY early in the morning, or late at night, to tell them to STFU.

The Mosquito noise device could assist in moving children away from that area.

It would be an awesome idea, but it's really expensive. I'm afraid that my husband would flip if he saw me spend that kind of money on a device like that.

Thanks for the idea, though. I think I'll have to resort to more budget-friendly alternatives.

My mother and I actually yelled at and told to stop two boys who were mercilessly chasing a flock of ducks at our local park. One of the ducks had a bad leg/foot and was limping, and we pointed out to them that the duck was hurt and that chasing it like that was being mean and bullying. The kids just seemed completely confused, clearly no one had ever told them anything like that before.

The boys' mom had just parked herself at the benches and lit a cigarette while the kids went on their terror spree.

Thank you for doing this. I don't like for the critters to suffer and those boys sound clueless. Love seeing them on walks: bunnies, hawks, deer, owls, robins, finches, ducks, snakes, geese, caterpillars, hummingbirds, etc.

You can get the Mosquito as a sound file and broadcast it yourself on a speaker.

Awesome! Thanks for that. I kinda gasped when I saw the price of the actual machine. I didn't know you could just buy the sound file. I'm gonna check that out.
