Well, I have no problem with another adult saying hey turn it down, but to say stfu to children, totally unacceptable.
Confront them about the situation?
It takes a village…sounds like you gave up and they stepped up. Be thankful.

You need to be in control of your children. Yes I have kids but if they were being loud and disruptive I’d do whatever I had to to get them under control. They may get older and think they can get away with much more because you’ll just give up. I do not agree with how your neighbor handled it so I’d suggest trying to get the kids to settle down first and then approaching your neighbor in a peaceful manner. Remember you’re going to be living next to that person or people for the foreseeable future so you don’t want animosity even if you need to be the bigger person.

Yell back " you shut the fuck up " and go on with ur day
Kids often fight… That means you can’t control your kids. Tell them to STFU
So relatable my kids are so loud and constantly arguing 
but not okay to swear over the fence at YOUR kids, could’ve approached you nicely and asked them to be a bit quieter but even then kids will be kids 
I’d be pretty pissed off tbh

Pretty sad how so many people here condone being ignorant to their neighbors. Control your kids… everyone deserves to have peace and quiet sometimes. She admitted it’s all the time and SHE can’t handle them so she ignores it … that’s not fair to everyone else that has to listen to them fighting!

Nope. If she used curse words her & I would be in the middle of the rd & I’d catch a charge. They are siblings, siblings fight. They were in their own yard fighting/playing. If the neighbors didn’t want to hear it then maybe they shouldn’t live so close to people.

I’d be more focused on getting your kids not to yell & fight in the yard rather then talking to the neighbour. I would have done the same thing. I wouldn’t want to sit in my backyard & the annoying ass kids next door fighting the entire time they’re outside with their parents not doing a damn thing. It’s literally like dogs barking & owners not telling them to stop or bring them inside. It’s annoying as fuck.
She should at the very least watch her language when speaking to young children IMO…second if she had a problem she should have addressed YOU not the children. I had a neighbor do basically the same thing and it almost came to blow between him and my husband and the police ended up being called. Kids are kids, my grandsons argue all the time. They are 5 and 7.

I definitely wouldn’t handle the situation with ignorance or violence. I don’t feel showing your ass as a parent is a solution. Your kids screaming and fighting just might get on someone else’s nerves, but you’re able to ignore because it’s a constant for you and they belong to you. I’m sure your neighbor would like to enjoy their backyard and nice weather.
Only thing wrong on your neighbor’s side was the language used in correcting their behavior.

If it’s a constant thing and you don’t want to deal with it then what makes you think strangers want to deal with it. If they can hear it constantly because you said yourself they are fighting constantly and you put them outside then what makes you think the neighbors want to hear that? Should she have said that no… but be a parent and control your kids. It’s summer and windows are open probably. Have some consideration.

Umm, that’s a big no-no to talk to my kids like that no matter what they were doing! So 1. They are in their own yard and 2.

We would have to have a come to Jesus meeting so I could tell her she had that one time to do that and I hope she enjoyed it because it betta not happen again…ever or there would be hell to pay… then I would commence to acting like boo-boo the fool with my kids in the yard ev-er-y day until I felt I had aggravated the pi$$ outta her!!

If we are outside with kids, siblings, and cousins and I know neighbors are out. I make sure they are respectful of our neighbors. It’s all about respect. Your neighbor was at her whits end. Did she handle it appropriately. No. I’m sure she hears you and your friends too. Tell the whole story. You told us one day.

If your kids are constanstly screaming/yelling and carrying on then address your kids because know one wants to listen to that all day. But if they are just being kids and playing with a bit of noise then stick your head back over the fence and tell her to shut the f**k up then continue to let your kids be kids and play in the backyard.

You can’t even educate your own child and get upset when the real world teach them a lesson. They don’t only need to respect each other’s as siblings but also they need to respect open spaces. It’s your backyard but you need to respect your neighbors and if you, the mom , don’t do your job be thankful your neighbors do it for you. That’s a life lesson for you and your children. If you don’t do your job as a mom people will teach your kids and they may not be as gentle or nice as you may think.

I mean, let’s talk about how often this goes on and how loud they are. Because some kids can be down right aggravating when outside (saying this as a mom) and will scream and yell and make a person who is NOT their mom want to stick 
in their eardrums.
Be mindful of what the kids are doing as it’s obviously pushing her buttons. Bring her over flowers or cookies or something and apologize for the inconvenience and try to feel it out. Maybe she was just having a shitty day or maybe this happens all day, every day and she just had enough.
I could do without the language, but often times kids will listen to others when they don’t listen to parents. This person may have thought they were doing you. Favor.

I recommend having a respectful conversation with her and have your children apologize for being so loud and then if she’s a decent person I’m sure she will apologize for how she talked to them. Then you should have a conversation with your children about their voices outside doesn’t mean yelling and disturbing neighbors. They can play have fun and even fight without causing a disturbance if they can’t they won’t be able to play outside until they learn.

Kids are Kids and you said it was 1pm right? However if you thought they were out of control then next time get them inside but no way should she have sworn at them. What the heck!? The alternative would be to carry on as if nothing happened and teach your kids to flip her off next time she’s an unreasonable person.

Very disrespectful of the neighbour and I’d be livid too however if this women is classless enough to scream and swear at kids that aren’t even hers over something so minor then it already shows you what kind of nut you are dealing with. I’ve been there and lived beside crazy people that make things up in their own demented minds so if you say something things may get a whole lot worse unfortunately. There are crazy people in every neighbourhood it seems. 
Explain to your kids how not to behave by using her as an example and ignore the crazy lady unless she gets worse of course.
So you’ve given up trying to control your kids but angry someone else has?

I’m really mixed feelings on this like you should never give up on your kids and I understand siblings don’t always get along but at the same time older ppl do like the quiet and not fussing however I think she should have came to you instead of the kids if she has a problem
But you do need to teach them to play nice and I know and understand it’s hard. I have 4 childern and one on the way and they are all spread apart 12 10 gonna be 5 gonna be 2 and newborn in July so I’ve got my hands full as well but I tell then they need to get along because once I’m gone they will be all they have left and my 12 year old acts a lot older but still likes to argue with the younger ones and I tell her that will not be tolerated so I take her phone make her apologize and then when I see fit she gets her phone back but maybe just talk with the neighbor and say thank you feel stepping in but I would appreciate if you have an issue you come to me next time instead of yelling at my childern.

Unpopular opinion…it’s the middle of the day in the summertime, kids are loud and rambunctious and if like mine, they fight one minute and fine the next…it’s inappropriate for her to say anything about it to your kids especially to cuss at them, people getting too used to running their mouths with no consequences, she should have came to you with a reason she needed quiet and talked about it instead of the passive aggressive screaming at your kids to get you to do something

If I had to hear that shit everyday non stop I’d cuss you and your brats out I’m that neighbor and I’d dare you to make my day if you know what I mean😉
There’s kids being kids and making the usual noise but if they’re screaming at the top of their lungs and being assholes then you should of pulled them into line or your neighbour wouldn’t of had to.
Totally different opinion here, but she doesn’t own the outside 
I hate neighbors who feel like they’re entitled to the level of noise outside.
Do I like when my neighbors yell at each other and fight? No, but do I tell them to shut up? No lol I don’t own the outside and I mind my own.
I mean if you live in a neighborhood you should expect to hear the neighbor kids.

Ask your boys to be mindful of neighbors legal right to peaceful possession of homestead; in other words, knock it off. Parents often grow a deaf ear to their own children’s noise levels. Be an excellent example for your children and let this be a learning experience. Be humble, respectful, and apologize to your neighbor. Her excited utterance is a startle; surely you get that.

Control your kids! If you can’t control them now, they are going to be out of control as adults. Kids play yes, but if they are screaming at each other and fighting, me as your neighbor do not need to hear them. Let them disturb the peace in your own house, not on everyone else’s time. If your neighbor felt the need to tell them to STFU then it has become beyond annoying to your neighbors.
Sometimes when we are being obnoxious, people get mad. If she does it alot, say something. Just this once, I wouldn’t.

I would have walked outside and said “No lady, you shut the f up and stay in your own damn yard while you’re at it.”
I mean if she had come and talked to you about it, it would be different. I would have talked to my kids about being too loud when she’s outside and I would have told her if they’re ever being too loud outside just let them know it bothers you and ask them to be quieter.
It is outside though and in your own yard so setting aside the letting them get angry and bicker at each other without boundaries part because personally I can’t stand it when my kids gripe at each other and for sure when they physically fight; she should really just get over it, it’s called outside voices for a reason.
I’m a big “don’t tell me how to parent my child” person. You own your house, and they own theirs. Kids are allowed to be freaking kids. Noisy, and playful, and fighting. She needs to mind her own business. That being said…you don’t need to address her. Your kids probably aren’t affected by her saying that- cause you probably tell them to cut the shit at times too. As a mom with a vocal kid, she gets on my damn nerves. And I’ve probably told her to “shut tf up” in a different way myself.
I say: let it be, for now. If it escalates further, maybe go with a level head and say something like- they are children, they can be annoying, but I don’t appreciate you cursing at my children. And take it from there. But as a parent who has had to stop myself from cursing out my kid at times….idk if I blame her
I’d go knock on more than her door so you prolly don’t want my advice. Lbvs

You just tell them “next time they have something to say, say it to YOU and let them know who you are and where you live.

I work nights and my neighbors kids are outside fighting and screaming and whining all day. By the fifth shift I am way over it so while that was definitely the wrong way to handle it, maybe she has a similar situation or her husband works nights or something. She should have just came over and asked you to quiet them down a little bit not yell at them.

I understand it is disrespectful to talk to other people’s kids that way. However, I have been in a situation with the neighbors kids where their parents would send them outside and NEVER supervise them.They would ALWAYS end up in front of my house screaming so loud you could hear them two blocks away. They would fight, throw their trash down in front of my house, taunt my dogs by putting sticks through the fence and poking them in the face, and keep crashing into my fence while tossing a football. They were even tearing up my property. Mind you, this was during the school year and they were so loud my daughter couldn’t do her virtual learning. There was no reason they couldn’t play in front of their own house. They would be out there all day until midnight sometimes keeping us up. There parents were the type that would get all crazy if I tried to talk to them about it, or they were nowhere to be found. So you can be sure that I would go out there and say something to them. I never cussed, but if their parents weren’t supervising them and they were in front of MY house acting like that, sorry, but not sorry. Our street was very quiet and these people were beyond loud. I supervise my kids outside and I expect if a neighbor sees my child doing something inappropriate to say something in a respectful manner to my child if I’m not there. With that being said, I would let the neighbor know the situation and ask them if they have an issue to come to you in the future. They shouldn’t have lost it on your kids, but it is your responsibility to make sure if your kids are unruly that you handle them in the proper manner as well.
Go knock on her door and then leave a burning poop bag by it 
As a mom of all boys I feel you…my boys tend to get rowdy or argue from time to time. I try go make them behave for the most part when outside playing, bc I don’t want to disturb my neighbor who is a nice older man but they are kids so they aren’t always on their best behavior or the most quiet.
But regardless of how loud or disrespect any child can get its not your neighbors place! They should have brought any issues to you guys in which if your not a dick would have been more than happy to try and keep them more calm.
No need to rage on the neighbors just yet though. I would how ever the next time in passing let them know you don’t appreciate at them cursing your kids out and that if they have future problems they can address you and not your minor children with vulgar words.

I mean if they were fighting and you were just ignoring it then it sounds like they felt like they had to do your job for you. But also I don’t let strangers yell at my kids. If you Got a problem come to me. So yeah I’d say go tell them that. But also pay attention to your damn kids.
