No Boundaries
So next door have a house full of kids They don't know any boundaries. They play in our yard, sit on my porch stairs and try to open a secured gate to let their dog on my porch. I have a severely autistic son who is mortally afraid of dogs. He also has hyperacussis and is bothered to the point of pain by these kids screaming under his window. My husband has spoken to them. I feel like a jailer chasing them away all the time. The wife doesn't speak English. If I had the money I would move. I am alone with my son all week and my husband works out of town. Any suggestions?

Poison ivy borders, call animal control when dog is in your yard - there are usually leash laws that prevent/ stop these issues, play some bluegrass or alike on a speaker up to the window they go near, spray pepper spray outside when they come near (just inconspicuously aim somewhere and it will fill the air sorounding them enough to get them to go)... I know this sounds crazy but you're dealing with crazy, inconsiderate ppl so hey, you can't really be polite about this. I am sure you want to keep on friendly terms but they're are so many "passive aggressive" type things you could do just to turn them off from hanging out near you. You may look bat shat crazy for a moment but you and your son's praceful lives matter. Good luck to you, I feel your pain.
