Lulu: Ta matey I forgot to add that I don't swear at them though. I do think that is unnecessary... actually, hold on, I have sworn at my DD when she deliberately left the gate open and my toddler gained access to the road. I had told her about 5 times not to leave the gate open. I grabbed my toddler with about 10 centimetres to spare (off the road). The thing with swearing is if you do it all the time it loses effect.

SJ: why don't you offer some baby sitting services to your neighbours.... that would probably help At least they might try to restrain themselves if they knew you.

ETA: thanks too Janie
