My friend found this stuffed into his mailbox this morning. Apparently kids having fun is a crime in

The pint-sized subject of this note is clearly headed for a life of crime. The neighbor charged that the small child was:

Running free in his backyard
Laughing
Giggling
Carrying on without end

My advice to this neighbor: Get out and get some fresh air — maybe even engage in a little “carrying on” yourself. I bet your dogs will thank you for it!

How would you respond to the busybody neighbor?

More importantly, what should the police if they were called?

#1 Report to the police as a "threatening" letter.
#2 Report it to the US Postal Service of an illegal use of the mailbix. This is a federal crime.

If true, which is doubtful, I would buy the kid a bugle and a big bass drum. Maybe one of those giant kazoos from the world cup.

Mom needs to start organizing regular play dates in her backyard.

Sadly, there are plenty of sickos in the world who value pets over children. Some of them post on Freerepublic.

Probably an old lady or someone with too much time on their hands that’s jealous of the little boy being able to have fun

Or invite some of the kids friends to play in his backyard every day and tell the idiot neighbor to call the police and see where it’ll get him/her.

“This cannot be real” I tell myself. Then I remember that I live amongst the human race.

Ah...nothing would clear the air quicker than a portable air horn.

Awesome sound.

‘Course some very loud Wagner might do the same and add some art to the neighborhood ambience.

Ditto. Maybe a 72 hour admission for the letter writer too.

I have a neighbor like that. The solution is simple – – windchimes!

Text was photoshopped on the paper. Very obvious.

I would do nothing at all and ignore the letter. Just continue with my living and let the child play.Sooner or later the person who wrote that letter will do something stupid.

That would be the LEAST I would do. I have a lawyer on retainer just for stuff like this. Sic 'em, lawyer.

Dogs and children are just a reflection of the owner/parent. The old geezer that wants the kid inside and quiet needs to get a life, and stop harassing children illegally.

We have a rental behind us that can’t seem to keep its renters. The current one asked me if I could move my wind chimes. They’re huge and sound like church bells. My reply.......when you can get your kid to quit crying all day in the backyard.
I would never have said a word even though the kid, she sounds about 2, cries over every little thing all day long while playing in their backyard. But she had to open her mouth. Lol

I would send the neighbor a box with a note on it. NOTE says:
Dear neighbor, from the tone of the letter that you sent me I have surmised that you are full of S-—. Enclosed in the box you will find a nice 10 ounce bottle of laxative. I suggest you use it and improve your personality.
