Theres no fence between mine and the neighbours house. There is a shared drive way between the two houses and garages in the back on either side so itd be hard to get a fence. I’m renting so i cant put one up myself. The realestate won’t do anything, yet they said they were getting quotes done when I moved in .. 10 MONTHS AGO!
Anyway .. my neighbours are great really nice people .. we often go over there and my partner has a few drinks with her parter occasionally. They are nice people .. Anyway she has 7&6 year old boys that love my son who is 19 months old.
Well they always use our trampoline in the backyard coz my son is a little to young for it yet (It doesnt have a net .. it did but they broke it so we just took it off .. Kept having to re-tie broken elastic …)
Now the problem is the trampoline is on our side of the yard and I dont mind them using it but its summer where I live so we have the windows open. The trampoline is directly inline with the window a few metres away .. They call out to my son and get him to talk to them through the window .. And they’ve done it about 10 times today! Even when we weren’t in the room i could hear them yelling out ..
Also on the other side of the house near the back door they come right around if they hear me and aiden in the kitchen, (we bake together .. =D) or they come around to get our cat (im allergic so it doesnt come inside) they come around to the backdoor and interrupt everything .. Its driving me crazy .. I often worry once i hop out of the bath or shower coz i forget a towel a lot of the time or my clothes so i have to run naked or wrap the towel around me. and when im sitting in the bath i can hear em at my backdoor or down the side near the backdoor andi have to wait for em to go till i can go into my room and get changed! I shouldnt have to do that in my own house!
One time i walked into the kitchen and the little boy had opened the door and was starting to walk into the kitchen! I told his mum about this and he got in trouble. Its great they love aiden so much but this is getting really annoying! Especially today when they called out to him while they couldnt even see him!
I cant wait till they go back to school!!! But in the meantime how do you think i could word it nicely? Maybe its just coz im pregnant and overreacting? lol .. thanx anyway .. i feel better now!
I should have to worry about remebering to bring a towel to the bathroom because the neighbours kids are snooping right around the other side of my house near the back door?? The linen cupboard is on the way to my bedroom a few steps out of the bathroom .. But it is in plain sight of the backdoor .. and the actually wooden door has a big glass panel ..
Im allergic to cats thats why it doesnt come inside .. I break out in hives and puff up .. my son recently had an allergic reaction to something and we dont know what and my dads passed his allergies to me so i couldve passed em to my son … i dont want to take the risk .. just incase .. hives are a pain in the bum! lol

Geez — how hard it is to remember to take clothes, a robe or a big towel into the bathroom with you? Seriously, you’re an adult, right? Put a towel bar in the bathroom and hang a towel in there. Or take your bath/shower first thing in the morning or at night when the neighbor kids won’t be around. Set limits for the neighbor kids — they can only jump on the trampoline for two hours in the afternoon (or whenever it’s convenient for you). Keep your doors locked so they can’t just walk right in. This is pretty basic stuff. You need to sit down with the mother and let her know that her kids’ noise has become a problem and the two of you can work out a friendly solution.
