The neighbor we live next to is one family that needs major help. The parents fight all the time, and the husband is so abusive, that the cops have been called on him. Last time they were called, he backed up the car really fast, with the wife half way in the door and tried to knock her out of the car. Alot of cursing was involved and it wasnt good. With kids around, it was considered Child Neglect for them to even witness this stuff, but then have to be in this kind of enviorment. I feel so bad for the kids.

The husband gets drunk all the time and drives. A couple of nights ago, we caught him on our security camera pulling into their drive way and almost hitting our vehicle. Our two drive ways are next to each other. When we looked outside, his car was angled towards their home! Then when we saw him get out of the car, he couldnt walk, and had to lean up against the car to get to the porch where he then stumbled inside the home.

The mother has no valid drivers license. She hasnt since we've known her, for the last four years. It was always the husband or her mother who lives with them thats been driving her around. Well the last couple of weeks, she has been driving. Her mother's health must really have taken a turn for the worse, and she's been the one driving the kids to and from school, and going out in the day when the kid are in school. She is such a bad driver, that she almost hit our car when pulling into the drive way, and a kid from the neighbors house down the street walking on the sidewalk at the time. I reported this to the police, and even gave them times I know she is more likely to drive. But since then, its been a game of cat and mouse. The times I see her leave alone, she never gets caught. The times I see the cops around our area, she has her mom struggle out to the car to drive. Its like she knows how to get around this. Its sad though becuase Im in fear for my kids safety when she drives. The last thing I want is for my kids, or anyone in that matter to get injured by her driving. I just cant believe that some people can get away with things like this.
 
Some people always seem to get away it. Our neighbours often have parties that last until the early hours. As we are semi detached we get to hear it all and not sleep!!! We were invited to one last year and the amount of alcohol consumed was scary!!! They normally stop the music about 4am and she leaves to go to work in her car about 7am. Surely she must still be over the limit?! They also have 2 kids aged 11 and 6. They stay up all night too.

About 3 months ago they bought a husky dog and leave it a lot during the day. It cries and whines from the moment they leave. I've also only seen them walk it a handful of times. So tempted to call the RSPCA.

Shame we can't choose our neighbours!
 
it was amusing one night, the guy next door to use gets drunk one night and starts trowing his girls stuff out a window so and making noise one night. so she gets he large male friend from up stairs in the apartment to curb stomp him and put and end to all the noise. but they were all ejected for making noise late at night. and the cops were called on them i think. they still have to pay the rest of their lease I think, so it was a poor choice,
 
When we lived in a apartment the neighbors above were just a treat. During a 2 month period they would play the song Macarena until 2am and I had to get up at 4am for work so that was a good time.
The best was off work one day and getting a nap I was awakened by by her and him having a good time. An hour later I went to get the mail and he was just getting back from a long day of work.....so it wasn't him. 3 months later they were gone.
 
My neighbours are great, but the house that backs onto us are a family who constantly have different animals in relatively large numbers. They had 3 puppies a goat and about 10 chickens. The chickens use to end up in our backyard, one got stuck up a tree. They constantly have different dogs, I think they get them as puppies and then stop looking after them once they stop being cute. They have had massive domestics that have gone on from 10pm to 3am and all we can hear is 'I f@#$ hate you I wish you were dead" sad because they have kids who have to hear that. Whats really bad is they have a lot of trash and crap in their backyard including an old car and a caravan...... they had about 6 people living in the car and caravan for at least 6 months illegally. They're still there the illegals have left but, they have a constant influx of different animals and their kids roam the street. They've been visited by the police on numerous occasions.
I don't think it's fair that some people blatantly disregard the law and seem to get away with it. While I would be if I ever decided to do half the crap they do I'd end up in the back of a police car.
 
It's unreal how many people can cheat the system or stay totally off the cops radar. Yet the lawful citizen winds up in all sorts of trouble. And no children should ever be around the stupid chaos adults bring to the table. Children need to enjoy their childhood period.
