no advice here
but man, wifey and i are trying to make babies, if our kids do this shit, kid's gonna' get an ass whoopin' just like i would've if i pulled the same crap at that age
mental or not, that's a bunch of crap and should not be tolerated
i'm sorry you can't actually take action, that'd be a case where i'd give you permission to whoop my son's ass had you come to my door, well i hope i'd react that way
shit man, hope you find a decent solution that works! maybe motion activated water sprayer devices like what's used to keep cats and other pests away? they're pretty cheap on amazon...

um..
um..
Jo,
Every time the kid is either looking thru your window or knocking on your door, take the kid by the hand, lead him to his front door and either ring the bell / knock on the door and calmly explain that this is not acceptable. Do it as many times as the parents get the hint.
I do not talk to any of my neighbors' kids what so ever. Even if they address me directly. I ignore them.
Don't let this child play with your dog ever again.
Keep on bringing him back to his parents with a calm disapointed expression. Keep on explaining what happened, over, over and over and eventially one of the two will get the hint that this behavior is not acceptable.
Be PERSISTENT AND RESOLUTE
If not, take the next appropriate actions.

just like a grow question. there are 100 ways to do anything. some work and some are funny as hell. info, entertainment and attitude in one thread. gotta love this site.
the kid's a kid, special in the head or not.
the problem you've got is with the parents - every time the kid bothers you, you've got to bother the parents just as much. they let him run apetitties because they don't want to deal with it
kid wakes me up at 7am, i'd be next door rap-a-tap-tapping on their door in my boxers 'Your alarm clock is roaming the neighborhood'
kid is looking in your windows, again, every-damn-time, rap-a-tap-tapping on their door should follow. mutually assured annoyance is about the only way it'll sink in to his parents that you didn't take their child to raise for them.

Jojo, if you are not taking the piss and what you explained is genuienly what happned, are you really going to take the actions against the "learning difficulties" 6 yr old, to criminal proceedings... and get the police involved in this, that would seem totaly petty to me.
But in fairness this kid is obviously loves your dog, and maybe he's peeping though at you cos he wants to play with the dog?
regardless of what his motives are, if he's annoying you with invasing your privacy dont take him to the parents, go to the parents, you 1 on 1 with the parents, and explain that ur happy (or ur not) for him to come and play with your dog 2 times a week, or something, but no more, or not at all. And he must stay off your property at all times. Tell the parents dont tell the boy. They have a responsibility for not letting him coming upto your windows to spy on you lol
but yes I would consider that extremely annoying aswell.
good luck to finding a solution

Has the OP come back and said just how retarded or "Handi-capable"(for the pro tard crew) this kid is?
I got the impression from first post that the kid was pretty high functioning, more of a weird kid then full blown hockey helmet, short bus material.
Maybe one of those blue light bug zappers.
Hung down low, just about where a kid could reach it.

link to thread? i searched couldnt find it..sounds wonderful
edit-ok i found whats left of it..
never saw it myself but I can only imagine that someone inverted a styrofoam cooler & lined it w/aluminum foil to turn it into a reflector.......
When the boy comes over at 7 in the morning ask him if he's had breakfast yet. If he says no ask if he ever has breakfast at home. I'd probably even ask him a few other questions. Things he does during the day? Whether he has fun. Just basic questions to see what's going on. I normally wouldn't think this was right, but it seems the parents aren't doing anything to stop him, so I guess they've involved you....
If the parents don't care that he's doing this, they probably don't care much about anything else either. The next conversation I had with his parents would depend on what the boy told me. Somethings obviously not right with this situation. Good parents don't just let their kids do these things, mentally challenged or not. It's pretty obvious they're shitbags. This situation would aggravate me. But it wouldn't be the kid I was ticked at....
I wouldn't suggest being mean to the kid. Who know's what situation he's in. But you do what you're going to do. You might be able to make a difference in someone's life, or you can be mean and get a giggle out of it like some of these other's would....... Guess it all depends what kind of person you are......
The choice is all yours......

Naw....it was some shmoe who made reflectors for his 1000W lights from dense-core foam board (a material not usually selected for it's heat resistant properties...).
Omg I have ignited a firestorm. I love all the responses. Most have truly made me laugh. Some have left me wondering though.
I wrote this thread to have some fun. To see other peoples perspective, you know "what would you do?". I did not write this because I'm a clueless ass wipe that doesn't know how to handle his business. To all you haters that wanna personally attack me, thanx, know I know I'm doing something right,lol
As to letting him walk all over me ,That's not the case. We are pro active and handling this as we speak. In fact the number of incidents has fallen and I expect an end to this very soon.

He has 2 dogs of his own. He also has a brother that is only 2 yrs older than him. He can get his kicks at home with other animals and people. I ain't buying this kid another dog.
Great point. I'ts also where I am as a man, as a father and as an adult. I have 2 children, and I have NEVER hit them, ever. I know how to deal with children. My kids are extremely well behaved and a joy to be around. It all starts at home.
BINGO. exactly. This is my concern. He has seen me having sex. caught me jerkin off once and has seen us puffin bowls. Its a small apartment and space is limited. I don't want him to see the other goings on around here. Even though my grow is 100% legal and we r 215 compliant, I don't want the hassle.
The apartment has only 1 giant front window. Which has a huge shrub blocking it. This little guy gets in the bushes and crwls under the shrub to get to the window which has blinds. He peeks in the cracks of the blinds man. If I blocked this window we would be in the dark all the time, no thanks. Thats what makes this so frustrating till our lease is up.
Out of the question. first it would be impossible, just cannot given the situation. Second, our dog is not the problem, its the kid.
I don't know this kid that well. I have no idea who he likes or dislikes. Good idea though.
Great idea, grandma take care of things for sure. She is a BIG woman,loland if nothing works...............thencall he'z GRANDMA.......
Umm. so your saying that pepper spraying a 7 yr old kid is NOT sick?? You need to have your head examined. Hope you have no kids in your hood,lol watch out kids,lol.
As to letting him walk all over me ,That's not the case. We are pro active and handling this as we speak. In fact the number of incidents has fallen and I expect an end to this very soon.
way to be completely disrespectful to a child, let alone a mentally challenged one. You need to check yourself. giving all this advice to hurt a kid really shows what kind of person you are
Great idea, but you missed the part where we say no consistently. This kid does not listen to no. It's not my issue, it's the child's issue with authority. I know how to handle this situation. This will all be over soon.
well, not really sure. Not the hockey helmet short bus variety as some one mentioned, just a little slow. Enough thats its noticeable is his appearance and his behavior.
Honestly, this has been my roomates exact approach, almost to the tee. It has not worked. In fact he has taken to knocking on the door and then running away. Like i said, I'm not dealing with the smartest kid on the block.
Exactly, Marlo get's it. This is why the incidents keep occurring. This is why i have not done anything " drastic" yet. Its a touchy situation. I dont want the kid hurt, an i most def don't want any LEO or worse.
Stop having sex and beating off. Why else would the kid keep sneaking peeps, lol.
I feel compelled to stress this opinion, do not invite him into your lives in any way, one false accusation or misinterpreted moment could spell disaster in monumental ways. keep your distance.
Assume that he's always 'there' and shop Pier1 Imports or IKEA and get yourself something like this.......
let's in all the light still.
he'll lose interest real fast and move onto his next victim if he can't see shit @ your place. right now he has you where he wants you, you're even involved in his family life by approaching his parents, he's feeding off of your input & anxiety. if walking your dog ignore the hell out of him, put up a divider, zone him out of your lives & he'll go away.
never say hello to him again either as he'd see that as an invite back into your life.
cherry flavored electric fence! LOL Sounds like the parents are pretty slow themselves, I would go back over there and bother them EVERY single time their kid bothered me.
The kind of person who likes to make a couple jokes, that's what I am.. You need to check yourself. giving all this advice to hurt a kid really shows what kind of person you are
.
Your inability to tell when someone is kidding shows what kind of person you are, the kind that gets clowned by a 7 year old retarded kid.
I already told you the problem is not the kid, it's the parents, the kid will do what ever they let him.
How about renting a house?
Apartment living sucks because other people live there too.
There have been a lot of yummy-ish threads lately.
"help, I think I'm in the friend zone"
"help, a seven year old retarded kid is picking on me"
Handle your business and put an end to this nonsense, and stop being a nancy about it.
