Sandy,

You are entitled to do whatever you please in your space. It's up to you whether you want to create goodwill among your neighbors. I can tell you it is a lot easier to have pleasant neighbors than to have nasty ones - no doubt.

Finally, I have to say I'm a bit sick of comments in reference to children: "I have lived around neighbors that smoked cigarettes or even pot, had loud children or infants, and obviously dogs."

Children are nothing like dogs. They are human-beings, not some outside species invited to live in someone's home. All of us used to be a children. Rude children are just as annoying as rude adults - but there is nothing "special" about them.
