[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP please ignore the vicious harpies who always come out for a thread like this.[b] You’re pregnant and exhausted and she sounds like a tough 4 yo.[/b] Do consider parenting classes, not because you’re a bad parent, but because some kids are just tougher than others. Hence ignoring tantrums to get her to stop, which is pretty ordinary parenting advice, isn’t working with your kid.

Taking her outside if she’s going to scream is an interesting idea and probably worth a try in the meantime. [/quote]

From OP's report, this child wasn't an angel before she decided to have another baby. Just think about that. In what world does someone who is already dealing with a troublesome child in a small apartment with paper-thin walls and floor (and with neighbors that have already been bothered by the noise to the point that they've complained about it) choose to have another child and plan to continue living in the same apartment? Someone NOT rude and entitled, I mean? Answer: they don't.

Being "pregnant and exhausted" is OP's own choice. It's certainly not the neighbor's fault.[/quote]

A world in which someone wants another kid and predicts that the child will get less difficult rather than more??A world in which siblings can share a bedroom? A world in which having 2 kids isn’t reserved for the homeowner class?

You’re a mean person. Might want to reflect on that. [/quote]

I'm not mean. It actually seems like I'm one of the very few people on this thread who is compassionate towards OP's neighbors, AND her existing child, AND her unborn child. Nobody benefits when OP chooses to have more children than she can handle.

And I just read something on another thread that applies very well here:

"A child isn't a consolation prize for the life you really wanted but didn't get.

A child shouldn't be born with the job to make you happy.

A child is a helpless human with her own needs."[/quote]
