I've got problems with my neighbour, complaining about my teenage kids sitting outside in the evenings with their friends. Says they are 'out of control' and 'why they have to have friends over all the time?' My husband politely pointed out that there's not many places for teenagers to go in Doha, and we're happy to have their friends over to our house, know what she said???? (this is SOOO stupid) 'Well, you should have thought about that before you accepted the job and moved to Qatar'. Give me strength!!!!!

If she wants no noise or hassle from neighbours, she should be living in a stand alone villa miles from anywhere, not on a compound. Are we not allowed to use our yard and sit outside when we want to???
