[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How close are you?  Do any of your neighbors do shift work?  Why don't you let him play inside your house?  If you find it too loud, the neighbors probably do as well. [/quote]

Well, because we live in a small space and it would be too loud inside the house and plus it's a gorgeous day.  We do have lots of nearby neighbors, but if the neighbors are inside their home, I think they would hear it, but just barely.  If they were hanging outside, they'd definitely hear it. :mrgreen:

Well at any rate, he didn't play for long, maybe 10 minutes.  But I often wonder if they are making too much noise outside and our neighbors are bothered by their whelps and hollering.  But I feel like there is not much else they can do, and they have been told that they can not do so many things, like go see their friends, go to the zoo, etc. [/quote]

I'm particularly sensitive to loud noises, especially screaming children, but honestly 10 minutes is not a big deal.  If it went on for hours every single day, that would bother me.  Even then, it seems like the kids have to be able to do something.  If adults are feeling cooped up with the quarantine, I can imagine how hard it is for kids.  I appreciate you asking others' input - I think that's very UN-ENTITLED of you! [/quote]
