I don't get to sleep in very often, but on the days that I do get to sleep until 7:00 a.m., I would like to actually sleep until then. I certainly do not appreciate being woken up by the repetitious thud of a dribbling basketball outside. Yes, I would like to "thank" the boys, whose parents did not raise them to be respectful of others, that came down the street to a basketball goal that is not theirs and begin playing a game of basketball at 6:45 a.m.. I would like them to think about that the next time the beg their mom or dad for just 15 more minutes of sleep when they are trying to wake them up. The basketball hitting the ground is not quiet and 6:45 a.m. is NOT an appropriate time to be doing that. Just because you have to get up for school doesn't mean everyone else on the street is awake. Have respect for your neighbors that may be getting that infrequent opportunity to sleep a bit later than normal and those who may have lIttle ones that do not have be up that early. My parents would have busted my butt if I had been so rude, and I would have done the same to my kids. Some parents just don't teach their kids the basics, like respect, anymore. Sad!

NGK So maybe I shouldn't mow my lawn at 6:30am?
Just talk to the boys. I'm sure they would understand since I'm they would love to be sleeping also.
We have a car that picks up someone and honks. The same time everyday. You'd think by now the person they pick up is well aware that they will be out there at the EXACT time everyday. Doesn't bother me enough to care since it still hasn't woken up my babies. I sure hear it though.

AD I think we already talked about this. The lovely moms of this neighborhood think it's too much to ask for us to expect their children to respect that we all are not awake at the crack of dawn. We shouldn't mind them making noise in the morning bc they are happy to be up and going to school. I'm on your side. My children are young and do not attend school yet so I let them sleep until they wake up. Thankfully we do not live by the park. Just wait for the comment that you bought that house knowing the park was right there.

LM I don't think that kids playing basketball before school means that have no respect or moral values. People complain when kids are getting into trouble before school and now people are complaining when kids are being active instead of rotting their head watching tv before school we live in a NEIGHBORhood with neighbors. Maybe an earplug investment is worth looking into?

AR I have neighbors with kids who are often home alone. The family is struggling financially and it seems to me the kids cope with an unstable home life by playing outside as often as possible and the boy loves to shoot hoops. The boy is actually quite good at basketball and is as sweet as can be. Who knows, maybe its the same boy and maybe he wants to try out for a team and the coach told him to practice everyday. My point is, you have no idea the kids or the parents' circumstances. I dont feel it's fair to judge. If it upsets you, have a calm adult conversation with them and ask how you can help reach a comprimise. I think handling this situation in a kind compassionate way might actually set a good example for the kid if, in fact, he is not fortunate enough to have good parenting.

AN-P Seriously?? 6:45 a.m?? You people are nuts! There are city and county noise ordinances that even invoke the right to peace and quiet, but, hey, whatever, as long as they might have some family issue or trying out for a team, who cares! There are appropriate times for such activities, not just as the sun may be coming up and people are still sleeping. I do have the right to expect some level of quiet not intentionally interrupted by others, thus the reason for noise ordinances. Driving down the street (with the exception of revving your engine purposefully or blaring loud music) or the occasional dog bark quickly handled by the dog owner are understandable, but the intentional act of doing something that may disturb others around you at unreasonable hours is a lot different. If the kidS are practicing for a team, then there is probably open gym time at the school ,there is a basketball court by the elementary school and there are numerous daytime hours that this can be done during, not before or immediately at the time the sun is coming up. Sorry, but your excuses are invalid to me. Oh, and Lisa, buy your kid a book and they can quietly sit out and read or take a quiet walk or run. There are plenty of activities kids can do during quiet hours that is not mind numbing. TV is not the only answer.

AN-P Okay, well instead of telling them to stop, next time I will let the cops deal with them, as they are violating noise ordinances, Lisa. 6:45 a.m. is a reasonable sleeping time for me and many others, including young children. Your child doesn't have the right to disturb that during specific hours as appointed in the city and county ordinances, regardless of where I live. Teach kids to respect others and use reasonable judgement regarding activities and the times they are being done. It is rude people like you that have no respect for those around them that make it unpleasant. I do not feel that it is unreasonable to ask for peace at such an early hour. I did not say it was a problem at noon or 2 pm, it was very early in the morning. There is a difference of an expectation of noise at various hours of the day and night.

AN-P BTW, for those who feel it is my beauty sleep I need, I don't care that much about the bags under my eyes. I earned every wrinkle, every dark circle and every puff on my face. I have a busy schedule with kids, work, etc., and I do it all while battling a disease that is viciously destroying my body. I fight with everything I have in me, but sometimes it wins and I need rest to get up the energy to continue my fight, though it has been futile. My need for peace and time for sleep, especially at that hour, extends far beyond the need to prevent bags under my eyes, but more to aide in my ability to move throughout the day and keep going.
So what about compassion for the things you do not know neighbors may be dealing with in that respect? What about a need at 6:45 a.m. to get a little more sleep for health reasons? What if that neighbor spends nights up puking from chemo drugs or unable to sleep well due to debilitating pain?

AN-P It is the people who are fine with the disrespect of other neighbors peace and quiet that make this neighborhood undesirable to live in. So many choose not to raise their kids with respect for others, possibly because they themselves have no respect for others, and then people wonder why kids are rude and disrespectful and vandalize and feel a sense of entitlement. Why teach them to think logically about how their actions may affect others. It amazes me that their is an intolerance to dogs barking outside and owners who choose not to do anything to control that behavior, but we have a much lower expectation of how children should behave and their parents lack of respect for teaching them to think of others. 6:45 a.m. is not a reasonable hour. This was not at a park, but use of a private goal, not their own either. If they want to go to a park that is not directly next to a home that is one thing, but directly adjacent to a home where people may be sleeping is disrespectful. Jason, read the very first part. It is not limited to the numbered examples below.

The suburbs are scary. It's real simple here.
If someone is being noisy outside (and you can hear it over the din of traffic/sirens etc), you open up the window and shout "shut the fuck up!". To which they will likely ignore you or respond "mind your own fucking business" (in any number of possible languages).
Then you close the window and feel better already. :0008

Sorry for the small inconvenience at the roundabout near the apartments a few minutes ago. My children and I were assisting a baby turtle across the road. It took less than a minutes but it seems that the car behind us didn't appreciate our kindness. Please watch out for the turtles. This is the 3rd one we've helped along its way in the past few weeks and two of them were very small.

Melinda Nowak You have no idea why someone may have been in a hurry...maybe they were on their way to the hospital? Trying to get someplace to see a relative who was about to pass away?
The fact is, stopping and impeding traffic is against the law. Not trying to be a jerk...but maybe consider that the other driver was not the one in the wrong? Here is the Transportation code:
http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/TN/htm/TN.545.htm
See Sec. 545.302. STOPPING, STANDING, OR PARKING PROHIBITED IN CERTAIN PLACES.
Again, not trying to be contrary...just saying that many motorists have a certain expectation that other motorists and pedestrians will follow traffic laws. Yes, it was kind to save the turtle, but we all need to remember we are not the only one on the road with places to go smile emoticon
Have a good and safe day everyone!
