[quote=Anonymous]Over the winter in the late evening hours we would occasionally hear this constant howling. We honestly thought it was an animal of some sort as we back to a wooded nature preserve, and thought that perhaps since we only heard it at night, it was something nocturnal. Maybe a fox or coyote. It occasionally wakes up our sleeping toddler when it gets our dog going. We have newish neighbors a few houses down and one of their children is completely deaf. Well, not that the days are nicer and we are ourselves outside more and have windows open, we hear it even louder than before. It’s always well after dark, but after being outside this past weekend, we realize it’s the neighbor boy playing in his backyard! My husband theorizes that the boy can’t hear how loud he sounds. We use fans and noise machine in our toddlers room, but the dog hears everything, even from our basement. Do I need to just adjust somehow, or is there a tactful way to let the parents know? [/quote]
