In some areas of the subdivision, there are many kids out playing. Thats not necessarity bad. What is bad is that some are playing in the middle of the streets, in deep drainage ditches, and other areas not safe. Also, I see them sometimes wantering into driveways and yards that do not belong to them, oblivious as to the fact that it is somebodys personal, private property. I do not have a problem with kids. My kids were raised to be respectful of other's property and comfort. We knew better than to ever venture on property that was not ours or play so loudly that it disturbed others. Some of the parents have been conftonted about their children's behavior and it will change for about 2 or 3 days, then goes right back to the same. I believe this is an issue with the parents not disciplining and teaching their children how to behave and respect others. The neighborhood is not a large public playground, it is public streets an sidewalks, and personal proeprty. We bought a new house in this particular community because it appeared "nice" and quiet and the homes looked like nice middle class structures. However, the character of this neighborhood, with all the unruly youngsters and loud noise, is making me consider other options. This behavior is not even acceptable  in working class, lower income neighborhoods. If actions are not taken to remedy these issues, this community will go down hill quick.

Please, consider other options, the sooner the better. Good riddance to you, spoil sport. Everyone's children are happily playing here, happy amongst their friends and are outside getting exercise and fresh air and you.. you're busy complaining? Would you rather them fat and in front of the video games so you can have your peace? So sorry they're visiting their neighbor friends who may or may not live across the street from them. So sorry they also go visit other friends who may live down the block, or in the cul-de-sac. So sorry all these "loud children" tick you off, but you bought a house in a subdivision that has 3+ more bedrooms per house, all mostly with children, all who have become friends with one another. Instead of being happy about having such a kid-friendly place, you gripe. Give us all a break! Please, move. Wouldn't want everyone's happy, healthy children interrupting your peace any more than they already are. We happen to love it here. 

TO: happyfamily,

The sarcasm of your reply simply proves my point: Its not the kids, its you parents. You ALLOW your children to do these things by being  poor disciplianrians. Apparently you condone them playing on other peoples property and screaming at the top of their lungs 15 feet from your front door. When I purchased the house in late 2010, there were not as many unruly children. Anyway, I could give a "F" what you do now, because I sold that hell hole and moved on to a nicer house in a neighborhood that is actually decent. As far as I'm concerned, Whisper Meadow blows.  Sure there are kids in the new neighborhood, all of the homes here are 3 or more bedrooms, most homes have two stories, many of the kids are friends with each other. But guess what, I do not have the issues with them or their parents that I had in Whsiper Meadow. Why? Because they are being raised by parents who give a "F" about their behavior and how their behavior impacts others. This includes being respectful of other's property as well as allowing others their right to their peace and quiet. I have lived in enough neighborhoods over the years to know for a fact that Whisper Meadows is an exception in how children/parents behave; many neighborhoods of much lower socioeconomic status do not have these issues. 

Also, I'm not alone in my  desire to protect my property and have peace and quiet. At least two potential buyers for the house would not make an offer on it because at the time of the showing, they witnessed these kids outside "playing" as you call it. At least they had the forsight to know that is a bad sign and move on. Keep enjoying your "nice"neighborhood; I know I love mine.

We know you sold it. We happily cheered when you did. We (all the nearby neighbors) all barbecued together when you left, celebrating your departure. We know exactly who you are, and exactly the type of people you were. You were the ones who sat there talking smack about our kids being simply exciteable kids supposedly being "disrespectful" for skating too closely to your cars, or stopping to reload their nerf guns too closely to your lawn, but you were the ones washing your cars blaring songs with vulgar lyrics for our children and others to hear. But you say "we're" the problem here? HA! And when the cops finally arrived to tell you to turn it down, you blared it even louder. Apparently, you're not only a jerk, but you're bigger than the law, too? Give me a break. You and your "roommate" were the problem in this neighborhood, not the other way around. Your spy cameras nor your crappy attitude were never welcome. And anyone who looked at the house didn't choose to buy it because of your stupid cactuses and the stupid stuff you did to the house to ruin it, they didn't want to have to fix it. The family that lives there now did wonders to that house, and are quite welcome and friendly, much more than we can say about you. Please, give it a rest, take your cranky, crotchety attitude and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.
