I would bet a whole bunch of dollars your definition of kids acting like shits is WAY off base. I can guarantee that you don't have any little kids of your own, let alone a little boy. It's asshats like you who can't tell the difference between kids being little shits and them just being little kids. Now don't get me wrong, all little boys are little shits sometimes (my boy included). But when people like you start categorizing kids playing as them being little shits, that's where you become completely wrong. Frankly, your opinion on any kid related matters is going to be inaccurate, uninformed, and pretty much flat out stupid, and you should keep said opinions to yourself.

Perhaps you should take your own advice, especially since you don't know the level of noise the kids create or what the other guys hears. Likewsie I'm sure you don't know the level of noise your own kid creates on a plane, in a restaurant, or anywhere else in public, too, since you likely suffer from breeder deafness (as a nice complement to your blindness to cause and effect). So no, I don't think I'll keep my opinions to myself.
I actually am very aware of the noise my boy makes. I am also very aware of people who have no tolerance for children in any capacity (i.e. you). It doesn't matter if my boy is shrieking at the top of his lungs, or if he's quietly talking to me about something he sees...my boy is going to annoy you. Is that my problem? Nope. If he's being too loud, I will handle it. If his mere presence annoys you...then I guess that's just some shit you're going to have to deal with on your own.
And you don't have to keep your opinions to yourself...that was merely a suggestion. It still doesn't mean that your opinions on children aren't just plain stupid though![]()

Just wow... sad to see people like this are on the forum. I know the OP asked for "advice" on how to deal with the problem, BUT he did not ask for his children to be called foul names and for the record...NO, blaring loud music does not equal the noise caused by children. I've been the "other" neighbor where people's children were just being children. They are sometimes loud and sometimes parents don't care which causes it to get a bit excessive. I've taken the responsible route and spoke with the parents who were actually quite nice about it - problem solved-. As I didn't expect the noise to come to a complete halt, I understood it is important to let kids be kids. I'm sure the OP and his wife have talked about making an effort to help curb any issues on their end. If people like you can't be respectful when referring to children, I hope pancreatic cancer finds you rather swiftly. That also goes for anyone else badmouthing fellow forum member's children.

Equally sad to see folks like you that simply couldn't care less how much noise is made when "sometimes parents don't care which causes it to get a bit excessive." You sound a bit like a helicopter parent that simply could not ever consider the fact that not everybody wants to hear loud children or that their kids could do no wrong. OP has clearly shown who is in control of the situation with the statement "To those who say just shut up my kids, I openly invite you over to my house to see how well that works. You have to remember, little kids have lots of energy and strong impulses that includes screaming, crying, laughing and yelling..."
Yep. I have no room for people who have no respect for other people's chldren. Also, let me add, children will act out and be disruptive as long as the parents allow it...whether they care or not. The issue is with the parent, not the children, so take up the gripe with the responsible party.
