Parents on holiday? I'd be tempted to leave a few bottles of vodka out by my bin for them to 'steal'. They probably wouldnt be making much noise for long. Datura or Henbane tea might be a good mixer!

well it all stopped last night and today we were being watched by a 17yr old stood leaning against his mums car with his arms folded as we swept up the glass from the broken beer bottles thrown in our garden.
we cant walk in the garden without getting verbally abused but i dont let that stop me i assure you ;)
he appears to have gone out now roll on his mother getting home though im not sure how she is going to react

Hope you took pictures before sweeping up the broken bottles - or perhaps should have left them in place as evidence - the police could have checked them for dna.

Oh debster sorry to hear it has all kicked off again. What a pillock that lad is eh! Just to wish you good luck in dealing with it all

The ABC the police mentioned is a precursor to an ASBO - Its an Anti-Social Behaviour Contract (if you google it you'll come up with some extra info, suggest you check out your Safer Neighbourhood teams website and the Council's website). Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but between the Council and the Police and hopefully his mum and you guys you'll all be able to put some pressure on him

take Care

Oh Debster!

I was afraid that this would turn nasty!

I had this sort of thing a while back and it is really nasty and unpleasant.

Hope that you get your peace back soon.

I find it intimidating being watched silently - although at least you have OH - I was on my own - against however many were out!

Take care - Hope life settles soon!

I have been following this thread i just can't understand how his mother lets him behave the way he does! If i had got wind of my child behaving in such away he would lose all his freedom and wouldnt be left on his own until he knew how to behave.

I hope things get sorted deb and that his mum finally sorts him out before its too late.

Mummybunny I think the problem is poor Debs lives next to a minority where as your approach is what the majority would do.

I  really do hope life gets a bit easier for you Debs. We have lived next door to an abusive alcoholic for 25 years and it isn't easy to reason with folks who don't give a d**n about others.
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

Fingers crossed the mum sees sense. A bit like a kid I teach. Never submits work, has very poor attendance, attitude etc. Last time I spoke to his mum she said "He is not here. He is at his girlfriends. He is 16. What do you expect me to do?" ::)

Gosh what can i say thats not already been said other than HUGS !!

Call the local support officer and tell them the mothers back they will go around and speak to her.
Next time they leave tracks cover them with a bucket and preserve the patern of the shoes for the police.
The idea of hiding some vodka is a good one but i would lace these with something that will give them the trots :)
If there council houses a complain to the council is a must!!!

Take care

This morning I was on the lotty and at 0950 I looked up from my watering and a thirteen year old lad in a local schools uniform was walking down towards he came across to me and was this a short cut to his school which was a load of dogs testicles he thought that everyone would be at work and he was up to know good and he does not even get the benefit of the doubt, he told me he had come through a hole in the fence at the top which again is DT's, I told him he shouldn't be on here because there is a gate at the bottom with a big lock on it, I escorted him of the allotments and told that anytime he finds that he needs to back on the allotments because of his age he must be with an adult, this was just a dry run before the schools holidays when more than likely he will be out till all hours thieving, :)

If it was 9-50am and he was 13 then he was truanting from school. If the school starts lessons at 10am then my son will want to know the name of it so he can move there!

Not bothered if he goes to school or not he should not have been on those allotments, I've already had words with our local council about this case of trespass and he was still twenty minutes away from the school and I hope they phone the school obviously he will be easy to single out starting at that time of day, ;)

just to update you lovely guys on here who have helped me keep my sanity this is how it stands at the moment.
the mother has not spoken to us at all, puts her head down and charges in, hubby got one hello from her the other day and last night as we were both on our respective doorsteps at the same time she had to say hello when we said it first.
we have had very little trouble until last night, when i got home from work the 4 main offenders were in the garden next door two sat on the communal shed roof, the fence post had been knocked over again so hubby politely asked if they had knocked it over and the 17 yr old replied are you starting all the f***** c**** again, we aint done f**** all to which my hubby replied i think your answer to my question is no we havent touched it, i asked them to get off the shed roof, (it looks right into my bathroom window and i was uncomfortable having teenage boys looking in my bathroom window, may be flattering myself there i know lol) he told me it was his roof and he was allowed to be on there,
as we walked in he called us f******* losers
i have left a message on the council officers phone cos i am really fed up with this it is getting where i dont feel comfortable in my own house or garden, the trouble only seems to happen when the mum isnt there but she cant be there 24/7 and i cant stick much more, so i am going to contact the local police officer again too i know it is all in the hands of the council but it feels so out of control
