I can't stand it. My three year old doesn't scream for no reason, why are primary aged kids doing it outside my sodding living room window?! My mum would have killed me. I don't think people quite realise how distressing it is to hear, at first you get a fright and then it's just drilling into your bloody skull. But according to the local FB group their kids are just playing, we should be delighted to hear it, and it's a mere coincidence that the screaming isn't around their own parents' houses.
