Ok so I am actually about to explode from anger over this and I need to vent. I am a teen so that will make the age gap make more sense. My neighbor, E is 8 and she is insane. She goes in our backyard when we aren't home and plays with our chickens. She throws them around and feeds them random things that can be poisonous. Whenever I tell her to stop she throws a fit and storms home and way over blows things to her mom. The only reason I know this is because her older brother who is a decent human being tells me. We have a sea shell collection and she will smash it because it is "fun" and then she will steal our shells. My mom wont let me put a lock on our gate or call the police when s

Have you gone and talked to E's parents yet?If not then I'd advise doing that and if they try to say 'oh,she's only 8' then you simply tell them,and I mean TELL them about her tossing and feeding your chickens random things and about the seashell fiasco.If you do talk to them and they don't do anything,then get a lock.See what happens then.

You know. You CAN talk to authorities yourself, who can then speak to the parent and demand they pay more attention to their child. Your age does not matter. They WILL come out. Not only is she doing property damage, but she is endangering the lives of animals. It is better that it is dealt with now, rather than when actual fines come up and her family can't deal with them.

This.Versa explained better then me.
