I have been more than kind and lenient toward my neighbors. They are OUT OF CONTROL! They leave beer cans in my yard, steal my stuff, play in my yard, stay up until 2 a.m. blasting loud music and are just flat out rude! I have talked myself out of doing this post for nearly a month now.....it just keeps popping up and staring me in the face. Tonight set me off because I came home around 10:30 from a softball game (rah, rah, Legacy Dental!!! we lost tonight by the way:) and Abigail's bike was in the street blocking the driveway! I got out fuming mad and moved the bike, parked the car and came straight in to write the letter posted below to the neighbors! I do have to admit that this letter is horribly written with bad grammer and everything, so you should get a good chuckle out of it! I had to post it because I never delivered it....Steve wouldn't let me out the door :) Otherwise I would have gone right up, rung the doorbell (YES...at 11:00 at night!) and handed them my letter. I think they ought to know what they put people through. I was nice and only wrote about the bike to them. That kid of theirs pushed Abs off her bike the other day, took off on it, and then came back around, Abigail kindly asked for her bike back and he actually spit on her and took off on her bike again. His mother did nothing as she sat there and watched the whole thing! He is around 2 years old and is constantly outside without supervision on an incredibly busy street. I fear that he is going to get hit by a car one of these days! Anyway! That is my vent and I will be calling social services in the morning! I hope they do something about that household. I sure would love to have neighbors that don't drink, smoke, blast loud music through all hours of the night, that STAY OUT OF MY YARD and don't steal my stuff and that are responsible enough to watch their kids!!!!!! Good night and good riddance! For those of you that don't know Beth, she used to be my neighbor.....BETH!!!!!!!!!!! When are you moving back to Idaho? Steve and I need some decent neighbors again, we miss you!
Dear Neighbors,
Your son may not come into my yard anymore! He has gone into my shed, gotten my daughters bike & taken it to ride. I had to then come ask for my property back. Tonight the bike was gone again & then left in my driveway so that I had to get out & move the bike to pull into my driveway. PLEASE be more responsible about watching him to prevent this from happening again. If it goes missing again, I will call the police. Please be more respectful toward property that doesn't belong to you.
Thank you!
Your neighbors @ 127

That would get old really quick! I would be so irritated and mad as well. Especially the incident on the stealing the bike and spitting. Some parents just don't care, and we wonder, as a society, why things are getting so much worse! Hello, it is PARENTING! How scary, too, that their kid just takes off. I have an escape artist myself, and it freaks me out everytime!
LOL, the beast in me says, Give em' the letter!!! But in reality they probably wouldn't change. If they are that low class, they'll stay that way. I'm sorry you have to put up with that. It's our first time having neighbor kids on both sides of the house and it will be interesting. The other day Justin heard little kids at the one house using some pretty foul language. GREAT!
I don't think your letter was rude!! Its more rude what they're doing to you! Yeesh!! Also - good thing Buddy isn't your neighbor... he's a klepto... He'd steal stuff all the time!! (hehe) Anyway, good luck with trying to get it resolved. The best and hardest thing to do is to pray for them. Who knows? Maybe they'll move!! Buah ha ha ha ha!! Or!! I know!! Steve should join the Air Force, then you could be our neighbors!! :D
Yeah, I see them outside all the time too, with their messy yard and all. I totally think you should give them the letter! How annoying that they steal your stuff and spit on your kid! Unacceptable. Good luck with that.
I have NO patience for neighbors like that. I would've already chewed them out. You're much more tolerant than I am.
Ha..ha...ha! I am laughing not at your situation, but at that letter, because that sounds EXACTLY like something I would do!! Write a letter and then never send it! I have only actually sent a letter like that once...and boy does it feel good!! But, you probably did the right thing not giving it to them....it may have made it worse!! By the way....did you call socail services?? That I really would have done!! :) Better luck with those crappy people next door!!
I have to say I agree with you. Something needs to be said to them so that the situation could get under control. And if a kid spit on my kid you better believe the parent would be hearing about it. That is crazy! Good luck getting things settled.
