I read the whole letter on Tumblr the other day and wanted to vomit. It was bad enough when my bff's (now ex)neighbor called her kids "little shits" and that "they should be on leashes" within ear shot of them and made them cry. My passive ass was close to violence. This? Their lawn would be on fire.
Not reading the letter but the article says it's anonymous. Do they know who wrote it? Must be a small group of people in hearing range of the family, right?
I bet they figure it out. And good for them for going public! The neighbourhood comes together, the family finds they have support, and children of the letter-writer will hopefully see that haters are the unwanted people on the block.
There are a lot of home layouts that arrange all the back yards facing inward, toward each other if not directly gridded together. If the boy yells a lot there could easily be a dozen households that can hear him.
Yeah, I was thinking about a dozen. I bet most of them are expressing their support of the family. And the ones who don't... I imagine the family who got the letter already knows who gives them stick-eye whenever they cross paths.

Ma'am, you're thinking of death panels. This isn't America.
