Ingo was so cheery, ahh, new neighbors, YOUNG peeps, three kids! Cute!
No.
DUMB. Not the kids. But.
See. ... little L was ringing the bell at her parent´s when I came to the house.
I asked, "no one there?" - "hmmm, no one opening, but I come in with you 😀".
I checked mail and that formerly shy girl (gosh, they grow up so quickly!!) cheered a big "BY-HYY!"
Sweet girl.
Other... young parent´s kid painted 400 times (yes, you read that correctly - four-hundred-times) "0" with chalk on the ground, marking each 20 zeros.
Creative.
Not.
Crescendo: RIGHT AT THE ENTRANCE - what a DUMB Mum is that?!!!
A colourful something of ... ALL colours.
I can make my way around it - we live ground level, do I want all the colorful chalk in the condo???? "Colorful" footprints all over.
What about older persons, persons with bikes etc, etc - NOT A CHANCE.
It takes her 30 minutes PLUS to get her kids going - every time!!!, the eldest bumping with his elbows on the glass from the outside (I understand his frustration) - I hope it breaks and she learns a lesson.
We have our joy hearing it every day (we were never allowed being loud).
Why I don´t pass by?
STRESS!!!
Boys won´t let me, if I simply go they scream bloody murder, calling me intruder, not once, twice... Balls get shot onto our balcony, more than three times already - do not leave laptop etc outside.
So. Is this generation of young parents on a 70´s/80´s trip repeating anti-authoritarian education?!
How about your place?
Is there also a massive bust of thoughtlessness and lack of respect towards others?
Henry 🦁 - he loves kids in general and says: Rant over!
Here you see him enjoying...
Braunschweig Play Mile - not this year of course... - but he turns his back to parents who just don´t care to teach their kids.
Will the mother get the "hint"? Reckon not so much.
Maybe next time I brave up and tell her not everybody can jump around or wants to clean up their chalk in one own´s apartment...
Not a BIG problem here yet, but one flat has been given to a single father with a baby, previously no babies or children allowed here, anyway, baby is now about 15 months old, very strong tempered and screams very loudly when he can't have something, doesn't yet understand "No". I don't want to interfere at all, because the man might ask me to help with babysittting and I can't handle screaming toddlers, plus the baby is very heavy. I lifted him once for a few minutes and will never do that again.
ReplyDeleteYeee ... I don't have kids for neighbors ... a couple across from my house, but they're sweet!
ReplyDeleteHenry help Hathi 🐘 ... she's under stress! 😅
A little BIG hug for you! xoxo
River, oh, my. We had a kid like that right above our condo. We were awake most nights as the parents let him scream through. I was about reporting them, because that might´ve been abusive, just then they moved out.

Ella, lucky you! And yes, maybe Henry really should teach them some respect! Or I simply stomp on them! 🐘🤣
A little BIG hug to you xoxo
...so we get Henry's backside today?
ReplyDeleteWhen you´re nasty, you get that, yes. 😉
ReplyDeleteThe kids are not taught to respect others and that there are consequences to bad behavior.
ReplyDeleteI actually dislike children, so obviously I wouldn't go for that.
ReplyDeleteRedPat, and it´s not even their fault, but their Mum´s... sad...
