Re: This is ridiculous
It's totally riduculous! I was one of 6 kids growing up, and we had a ton of other kids in the neighbborhood, so needless to say, our house was always loud and going strong all day. There was one neighbor who came out every day and yelled at us to be quiet because he was taking a nap  He was just a crotchety old man and I believe he still lives in the house across form my parents, and long gone are all of us kids!

I'm a Mom and I'm all about kids...BUT personally I feel that if the neighbor addressed it to the offender's parents, the offender's parents could have tried be a little more conscientious about the situation to alleivate a hostile situation within the neighborhood. I'd be a little ****** as well hearing that for three years consecutively without it ever being put in check. To me, it sounds like this mother was trying to be an a$$ and not be the slightest bit accomodating towards her neighbors. Kids play, but c'mon. Besides, I find it a little disturbing that the Mom let's them play "the drowning game" all day long. I think one of the kids is only five??
Well said. Everyone on here is rolling their eyes about the neighbor, but as another poster wrote - neighbors complain - it's the village that decided to give them the summons - roll your eyes at them. If the noise was excessively loud and non-stop, the neighbor has the right to complain.

Are you kidding me??
Those poor kids can't even play in their own backyard!  I think it's better that they are outside playing rather than sitting in front of the TV and playing video games all day!
ITA! Complaining for 3 years? This guy either needs to get a life or move to a retirement home. He can get some peace and quiet there. 
That's what I was thinking. Him and his wife must be a 'hoot' to be around. I wonder what the other neighbors will do now? If I was one of them, I would give a statement in support of the kids.

I don't think it said anywhere in the article that they were playing "the drowning game," I think someone mentioned their neighbors do that.
The people next door to my parent's house have triplet little girls and they are always outside playing - in fact i hear them right now while I am sitting in the kitchen, yes they are loud, but they are kids... I can't imagine ever calling the town to complain about them.
