    Man up for gods sake and go into them ! Suggest that you have contacts in the Gardai and Immigration Bureau and see if that settles their hash !

    Just move! Who needs that hassle. Maybe try to find a detached house. Just thinking bout small kids! Very important

    YOU NEED TO APPROACH THEM FIRST.

    THEN IF THAT DOESNT WORK - TAKE NESSECARY STEPS TO OUT THEM FROM THE PREMEISIS.

    Its clear this sort of situation cannot go on like this..

    As someone said, a big advantage of renting is that you can move on; however, seeing as you're well settled there a long time, and you and your family have ties to the place, this should be the very last resort IMO.

    Moving isn't just an easy fix anyway, especially if the person has kids - your landlord has to approve of you breaking the lease, and might not, therefore bye-bye deposit; you have to find another suitable place to live, and finding the place in the first place can be tough, then there's no guarantee you'll even be approved. Then there's the stress of getting all your stuff moved.

    Plus, why the hell should you have to move rather than them, seeing as they're the ones causing the trouble. So as I said, very last resort.

    Best of luck OP.

    Given what you have said, then I would be calling the child welfare people, not approaching them myself.

    Bit extreme don't you think? The child could have colic.

    Nope, I don't think it's a bit extreme.

    The child could have "colic"(*). Or there could be something else going on. The OP cannot tell. The only thing that the OP knows is:
    • a baby crying more then any baby I've ever seen
    • constant slaming ...
    • people that don't talk they shout at each other roaring
    The OP is most certainly not qualified to tell whether this is a child-welfare issue or not. But IMHO neighbours have a moral responsibility to report their concerns, so that competent professionals can make a judgeemnt about whether there's a problem or not.



    (*) Some well-child nurses that I know don't even believe that "colic" exists, they say it's always a case of inept parenting. Other nurses, and some parents I know, disagree with them. Me ... all I know is that it's safer to assume the worst and find that the reality is better.

    I agree with Mrs O Bumble..Its a situation where this particular couple are hostile neighbours..When a neighbours kid called to their house to see if they needed any help they called the gards..

    On second thought,I think if you approached them they would react in an unreasonable manner,and i would proceed with caution if you were going to talk to them.

    They could over react or call the gards and make stories up,you just dont know some people are just plain crazy.


    Try to think of all the situations that might occur when approaching them and you will see it might not be the best of ideas,regardless of your intentions..
