Neighbors attack my son

There is a section 8 rental on our street, there are 7-8 people living there only 5 of wich are suppose to be. All of the children are 8 and under. Our problems started right away, these children began giving inappropriate info to the rest of the kids here. About sex, drugs and things used to smoke drugs. My son and a group walkedinto their kitchen to get a drink of water and caught them smoking pot. So he was now not allowed into their home for any reason. We still let their children play here and made sure my son just avoided their home without telling them. Well someone reported them because instead of sendng the kids to school they let them run the streets. This made them mad andd against us the reason for choosing us I am not yet sure. Since then everytime my husband walks our dogs the boyfriend shoots off his gun. He spends a lot of time shooting as we have 3 dogs and they all get walked separateley. Then the threatening and name calling to our 10 year old when he was riding his bike, the parents would scream at the kids to kick my sons A until he runs home crying. Then the mother would threaten to get a 17 year old to kick his a* , the he was going to get shot by the boyfriend and then the children would throw rocks as he rides past… We live on a very small street we don’t want any trouble my son doesn’t bother them, he ignores the everything unless they hit him. The 7 year old ran up and knocked him off his bike and ran to the porch where the parents were giving high fives to him. I do not understand how parents can teach their children to hate someone for no reason. How is it ok for a 3 year old to walk up to my son and call him names that I would never say. My son said those aren’t nice words the 3 yearold replied well thats what my daddy calls you?I am disabled and we care for my mother inlaw who has Alzheimers. my son has enough stress he should be able to enjoy his bicycles and friends without being attacked. The police cannot do anything I am not sure why since the parents are abusing their kids and mine. We are stuck waiting we cannot go down there how do I teach my child it is wrong if we go off on a tangent. I am at a loss can anyone give me advice on how to proceed safeley

Answer #1

I have reported it to the police, I took my son with me, he told them what was happening and showed the bruises all over him from the rocks, the police officer looked at the log I had kept and basically said keep writing down what is happening and walk your dogs, if you get shot call 911 and if they start shooting again to call a patrol hotline.

I was so upset my son thought talking to the police would stop the problems and he would be safe after all its their job…I am contemplating calling cps for the abuse psychological and physical they are doing to my son, not to mention what it is teaching and doing to their 4 kids.

The other neighbors are afraid to, numerous neighbors have bought guns to protect their homes from this man. Everyone is keeping their distance the kids are not out long and most of them are not allowed near that end of the street.

My son recieved a note at school yesterday that hit him in the head while at lunch, it read YOUR PARENTS MUST BE STUPID TO MESS WITH ME…Now my son doesnot go to the school he is zoned for, because of our move to my mother in laws home he is still in the school our home was zoned for. It is scary to think they are going after him, he is a good kid, honor student and has always got along with everyone. He is having nightmares and his neck and shoulders hurt from the stress. He has only ever wanted to be friends with them he doesn’t understand why adults would treat him that way. I don’t understand it either. I am at the end of my rope, I am in pain 24 hours a day, I care for my mother in law and make sure I have time to sit with my child every day and talk about his school work, friends, and anything else under the son. Because he is an only child he is not rough and tough he is compassionate, caring and wears his heart on his sleeve. It kills me to see him hurting and there is nothing I can do

Answer #2

Go back to the cops and demand they do something..if they won’t, go over their heads and talk to someone else who can do something…go to the city.

Talk to the school principal…let the school know your son is being harassed by this kid at school..t.hey have to do something.

If I were in that situation, I certainly wouldn’t just give up on this…

Answer #3

I don’t understand why the police can’t get involved either…isn’t shooting off of guns illegal in the city?? Threatening to “kick someone’s a**” is a reasonable threat to their well being (in Montana it could actually be an assalt charge)…Using a gun could easily be construed as assault with deadly intent…

Have you even tried to make a police report?

Answer #4

the police obviously arent doing there jobs. you should contact a lawyer if the situation doesnt improve. what your neighbors are committing is assault, harassment, assault and battery, and numerous other crimes. you may want to contact social services to have the children of those neighbors taken away from such a terrible influence and threat. to make your case convincing, consider getting other neighbors to call in about this family since they are all bothered by it.

good luck, Jerry

Answer #5

It seems odd that the police can’t do anything - this is obviously harassment.

I would keep calling them until they do something. Keep records… Every time they say or do something, write it down so you have something to show the police.

How are the other neighbours taking this? Are they getting this treatment as well? Set up a petition to have the family removed from the neighbourhood and have all the neighbours sign it…then you can take it to the mayor and bypass the police altogether.

Call a lawyer and ask what steps you can take.

You have a right to live in peace, and if one of your neighbours is causing you problems, you do not have to put up with it.

Answer #6

You are entitled to a queit enjoyment of your home. If your neighbors are stepping infront of your child on his way home or your companions way home they are keeping you from your home that is a violation of your queit enjoyment. It is obstructing of queit enjoyment. Now someone told me that if you mention drugs in and around that neighbors house with the children all of minors more than likely the children social services will step in. Are they affiliated with any gangs? Sometimes there are community efforts that can be made to the use of a clean up neighbor program that is normally funded by the government. Many cities and neighborhoods are not eligible for funds with threatening of gangs in the neighborhood. Keep trying once again, go to the sheriff’s department, just make sure you note everything. You can later sue the city and the police department if matters develop drastically.

Answer #7

I can’t belive what is happening to you and your kids. I am studieing to become a lawyer. you should note everything down and show it to the police. If they still dont do anything you should sue the city. 

                     Good Luck!
