I could scream!
We have a nice friendly groups of youths who think its great fun scaring the living daylights out of Tam when she's in bed by throwing stones and other stuff at the windows! And then giving out lots of verbal when we challenge them about it.
The police know about them - but seem to think that these arrogant sods will give us full names and address if we ask them for it - because they can't do anything till we know every last detail about those giving us grief. Yeah i'm sure they'd happily oblige and let the police know their whereabouts so they can end up in court again for breach of an ASBO - which is what a lot of them have. The police recognise some of them cause we have them on video - but still aren't doing anything about it.
The council are just as bad - they want full details and whether they are in council houses or not - how do i know that. Am i supposed to go and knock on the door and say "excuse me but is this a council house so i can let them know your son/daughter is being a pain in the ass and then they can kick you out!??!" Doubt that'd happen - and then we'd get the "oh my son/daughter would never do anything like that"
grrrrrrrrrrrr
Rant over - taking deep breaths - and going to look for the tablets!
