my two babies are in bed, but can't sleep because of all the bangs and whistles. I have let them stay up later than their usual bedtime (8:30) this week because people have been setting off fireworks after dark, but 10:30? come on! Is it stupid for me to report a disturbance? I don't want to be the crappy neighbor.

Because they get away with murder all of the rest of the year.....They don't care if there are children sleeping (or the lack of)....Selfishness is the root of all evil I think..... Report them and allow your kids to have a decent night's rest......

I feel your pain.
I used to live in Brooklyn Heights, right over the river. The city sanctioned fireworks all the time for various events and holidays that you didn't even know existed.
It was not unusual for our windows to rattle due to fireworks being set off at, say, 10:20 PM on a Tuesday in April. It would startle us and terrify The Blackest Cat.
Now, at least it seems that the people you're dealing with are just inconsiderate louts. If I were you I'd call the police.

I've been around children all my life, and believe me, if they're tired enough, fireworks are NOT going to keep them awake.
But, if people have really been setting off fireworks ALL WEEK, that is rude. There's no reason why they can't wait till the 4th.

No. they do no longer experience the experience like we people do. it really is because we've a primary fearful device operating by our vertebra (backbone) which sends messages to our mind. this signifies that if if our leg is damage, we experience the discomfort on the great mind. on the different hand, the insects are non-vertebra and they do no longer have primary fearful device. subsequently if an ant's leg is overwhelmed, in straight forward words the leg will experience community discomfort. to boot to, their discomfort importance is short, in view that they produce great variety of off springs and their existence is short. they could also reproduce their lost organs. this is been talked about that in case you reduce a cockroach's head, it is going to die after a month by using ravenous. Scientists have reduce a lobster's leg and feed him, which he ate. that is likewise real that except for people no different animal is wide-spread with of its existence.

The babies will go to sleep when they're tired even if a freight train was coming through. It ain't gonna kill 'em to stay up a couple of nights.
Why don't you take them outside where they can watch some.

Most people are just really damn stupid and inconsiderate. Report them, before it's too late. Some little kid caught a car on fire here today.

It bugs the heck out of me, especially when they keep going after midnight too. I just put up with it for a few nights out of the year.

I feel your pain ! I don't think 'those people' are reading the etiquette section of Yahoo Questions; further I do not believe they know what etiquette is. I think they 'feel it's okay' because they are simple idiots.
