Sad

Yanbu do you live in my hometown lol? Seriously I understand living in an awful area and feeling on edge all the time.

What sort of propert are you in is it mortgaged or rented or ha?

If people are making false allegations about you have you thought about keeping a diary of all dates and what was said to give to the police or la to see if there's a case for harrassment.

Is it just you and dc or do you have a dp

How much do you need to move and is there any way you can start a savings account? Even if it's just £5 a month, you may find some comfort in knowing that you're saving to get the hell out of there!

I sympathize. We live in a similar situation. Didn't realise before we moved that other inhabitants of out street were so awful, seemed like a nice quiet place. Horrific, rude, violent swearing brats. Worst in summer. Play in the park opposite till late shouting and swearing and throwing things and waking our baby. So embarrassing having people round with litter everywhere. Not much.advice, just to say I feel your pain.

Not in Cheshire it begins with g and ends in y but they sound very similar.

Are you managing to sleep ok op?

I think with diary if you go to the la showing who is causing trouble chances are they have already had complaints about them.

In my hometown the council knocked most of one of the roughest estates down and rehoused all the decent people and left the trouble makers to it I hope the same happens for you

oh im joining this club. me too. where the hell are these people from? where are their 'parents' if theyre out so late?
the worlds getting worse by the day. and so are people.

no discipline, no decent upbringing so they bring up their own the same, no guidance, no curfews, no respect,i could go on and on.

WANNA where are you? wish councils would do that here too. all the troublemakers together in one place and all the decent ones somewhere else.

and no, not being judgy pants, its a fact.

I was in humberside but dahn sarf now I got to say its the only decent idea the council ever had it should be nationwide scheme.

Op are there any neighbourhood or sure start centres in any local estates where you could meet some new people and if you starting putting routes down in different estate you might be more likely to get moved there

same here. ive been called a c*y snob. I actually am in a way!

HA's, for all their good intentions just tend to lump social cases a'la jeremy kyle types (gets ready for a flaming now) against genuine can't help being like this cases -in our case, having a person who, when DC diagnosed with disabilities, bug
*d off cos they didnt want responsiblity and shame of a 'retated freak ' (their words). so leaves me to be fulltime carer who cant go anfd earn a wage and get a mortgage...this wasnt my life plan.

but its how things have turned out, and whats wrong with wanting to better ourselves and have somewhere decent and peaceful to live and breathe?

for those who couldnt give a rip about their kids and surroundings, they spoil it for those who want to make the wortld a better place.

cant we on this thread all campaign for us living in the same street?! serious btw.

I think we should do a euro millions syndicate and if we win build an estate lol!

marj that's so sad I wouldn't do smacking but some people really need discipline. Actually I would prefer it if the parents got the birch do they teach their kids some manners and respect

mn street...that sounds good. like sesame street! or quality street!

why are we stuck in these ruts though? have any of you been down the housing swap/social services etc route? i have to all the time, we get disability discrimination a LOT (have posted about that before) yet we never get the help.

not just that, its 'normal' people too. for flips sake this isnt victorian slum and mansions era any more, so why do we seem to be DEvolving?

That's awful marj they should have a points system like people with disabilities and dv victims are first to be housed and good tenants should always get priority over bad ones
