Expectations to accept children
I need to vent here. I posted on another subreddit about the child in my neighboring apartment and how loud it is. The child is about 2.5 year old and whenever they are home it is screaming and shrieking at the top of its longs. It is so loud you can hear it through my zoom calls with a white noise machine on. The child also bangs on our shared wall. And the parents will regularly put the child outside on the balcony where the screaming continues, to the point i can’t keep any windows open ever. I got ripped apart on the other subreddit, people calling me a piece of shit and i need to get used to this and not expect a child free world and kids makes noise etc. i get that kids makes noise but this is extremely excessive. Also in general i feel like their should be shared respect - im expected to not be excessively loud to my neighbors and they should do the same to me, regardless if they have children or not
