What should I do about my neighbours?

My neighbours are extremely noisy. There are a couple with five kids and an alsatian (alsation?). We often hear the mum and dad yelling at each other and telling the kids to 'f*ck off' an calling them wan*ers, pri*cks, twa*s, everything! This has caused the kids to grow up as loud and, their 4 year old regularly tells people to fu*k off, and sticks his middle finger up. Their youngest daughter is always grounded and it seems like she gets unfair treatment. I feel like I should do something, but I don't if i should or if there's anything I can do. Any advice?

    If you are concerned about the children then phone social services.

    Noise issues will involve contacting the local council/Environmental Health office and filling in a diary of instances over a 2+ week period and then they'll take it from there, which could involve random visits, mediation or various other things they employ...

    No you didn't. You posted something, but didn't quite get to 'ring the social'.

    OP - Ring Social Services and ask their advice,

    On what grounds? That the parents are chavs and the kids are showing signs of becoming chavs too? :rolleyes:

    As great as it would be for chavs to have their kids taken away from them in order to end the cycle, I am not sure that social services will intervene unless there is a threat to the kids welfare.

    With either of those suggestions I suspect that if the neighbours are as bad as they sound the OP will most likely get hassle because they will probably find out one way or the other who shopped them.

    It is a catch 22 but neighbours are pricks at the worst of times.

    Do your neighbours refer you to as "bruv" and say "innit" a lot?

    Anyway, post your problem at www.nfh.org.uk - you will get some more helpful replies there.

    I feel your pain with selfish neighbours, they are the worst.

    As long as mediation isn't entered into, neither environmental health or the police can tell the noisy neighbours who has "shopped them".
