Baby problem

1,217 137 October 5, 2010 at 12:36 PM in Chat
So my neighbor moved in like 3 weeks ago and she has a baby that cries all night nonstop and since are houses are close together

Is there anything legally I can do to get her to keep the little bastard quiet

As the baby gets older, they'll sleep more. If it's colic, it usually settles down in a few months. Ear plugs and a little patience will go a long way.

You could anonymously drop this off on their porch:

You want to report a baby crying? Deal with it! It's a baby. You probably cried like that when you were little.

It's a real shame your mother didn't have the same philosophy. Like off a bridge, perhaps... Whistling

No

Its a private house
I called noise control last night but they said they can't do anything

She should put a muzzle on the kid or drop it off somewhere

This is the reason I never had kids



Hold it or use a muzzle like people do with dogs
I call BS. No way in a house you are going to hear a baby crying in the next house over (enough to keep you awake), with all windows closed unless said baby is using a microphone or you live in a cheap arse house. Maybe in an apartment/townhome, but not a house.

By "private house," I'm pretty sure he meant the trailer parked a couple of feet away from his. Biggrin2

Shut the fark up and deal with it, seriously. Maybe the baby has colic?


There could be a million reasons as to why that baby is crying, and I highly doubt it is purposely trying to ruin your precious sleep. You're so tough to complain on a forum, why not go talk to the mother about it?

Thank god you don't live near me especially since atm my daughter is waking up constantly in the night because of separation anxiety. So glad my neighbor isn't a whiny little bitch wave

Secret Or eavesdropping on neighbors with a scanner/ baby monitor.
