[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My neighbors have five, one set of twins. They are all grade school age. Both parents have professional jobs, one switched to no travel when the kids were born. They have a nanny who probably works 45 or 50 hours a week. They seem great. The parents spend 100 percent of their time with the family, no girls night out/guys poker night kind of things. [/quote]

Glad I don’t live next to them. So noisy![/quote]

Wtf would it be noisy? Are the kids up at all hours screaming outside? Does your house not have good insulation?[/quote]

I have five kids.  It is noisy.  They are always playing and laughing and shouting to each other.  It seems weird to me to live in a house with quiet children!

If you can’t handle noise or a ball in your backyard, don’t live next to us!  [/quote]
The pp shouldn’t live next to anyone with kids no matter the number if she thinks kids next door are that noisy.  Playing and laughing are normal kids noises welcome in most neighborhood. Perhaps 55+ communities are more appropriate? [/quote]

Wow. Someone touched a nerve. Can you keep it down please![/quote]
I’m just happy kids are playing outside and not on screens. 
Can you imagine if these large families just put their kids on screens like the other parents? So many tsk tsks from the DCUM crowd.
