She revealed she already knew she was being 'a right grump' about the situation, but it didn't stop her complaining.

The mum said: "Now that the school summer holidays are well under way, it’s become apparent that getting up and out into the garden at 8am is their routine. And they shout. A lot.

"Then at 10am they go inside and there is silence for a while.

"I can deal with it, I have 2 kids and I appreciate that’s what kids are like."

She revealed that her house backed up on two others, of which all had small kids.

To top it off, because there was just lawn and fences and no shrubs the noise doesn't get absorbed so everything sounds extra loud.

The mum went on to explain the issue, that her oldest son, 19, worked late and was being woken up early by the screaming.

She added: "Most shifts mean he is home around 11pm and in bed by midnight. He’s getting increasingly fed up with the neighbour kids’ morning routine."

"I really feel for my son, because being woken up 90 mins before he needs to be up for his next shift is pretty miserable," she continued.

The mum went on to ask users if she was unreasonable to go round and ask them to not their kids out before 9am.

Many people took to the comments section, but they all said she was overreacting and needed to put up with the noise.

One person wrote: "I appreciate it's annoying but you can't reasonably ask them not to use their garden during summer at 8am. Can your son use some earplugs? 8am isn't early."

Another commented: "8am? You are being completely unreasonable. Buy ear plugs."

"There are alternatives to asking the neighbours kids to be quiet - which by the way, is impossible and rude," penned a third.

The Top Five Reasons Neighbours Squabble

One study by Compare the Market revealed the top reason British neighbour's argue

  1. Broken fences - top of the board was broken fences and whose responsibility it was to fix it
  2. Parking: one of the leading drivers of neighbour disputes, with 54.1 per cent of people having issues with people parking in front of their house, parking bay or driveway
  3. Trees - complaints about a neighbour's tree cracking your garden path was also common with nearly half of participants finding it frustrating
  4. Bin wars - outdoor bin etiquette continues to ignite the most furious debates between neighbours
  5. Nosy Neighbours - some people have their eyes and ears at the ready to have a peek causing problems for others

Meanwhile a fourth said: "He needs to get earplugs. He is sleeping during daytime hours. Completely unreasonable to expect your neighbours to limit their lives during normal family living hours to accommodate that."

"Massively unreasonable,” claimed a fifth.
