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..."
