I am not sure which is worse, kids screaming all day or a dog yapping...think I would go for the dog yapping....I had neighbours where the kids were always on the flippin trampoline and screaming from 8 in the morning until 10 at night, complete nightmare as I was unable to relax and stay out in my own garden in the summer ! Not a word was said from the parents to tell their kids to keep it down...people dont give a rats butt these days TWR. I do feel for you.
