Duplex - Trouble with the Neighbor

Children or families with children are protected by law and society

Unfortunately not - at least not socially

I don’t think so either. That wasn’t the intention. I mean it from a communal perspective. By the way, I’m not childless. My granddaughter knows very well the difference between loud and quiet. She always goes to the person she wants something from and doesn’t shout, although they also have a garden in the countryside.

Unfortunately not - at least socially. Unfortunately, we are a developing country in that respect. I always enjoy being with my kids, especially in southern countries abroad (also gladly Latin America or Africa). THERE, children are the most natural thing in the world and a normal part of everyday life.

Here in Germany, you are often the annoyed one with kids - with my (well-behaved) three kids, you are often given strange looks (in specialty stores, restaurants, hotels, etc.). Terrible!

I'm very sorry for you, really, but unfortunately others messed it up in this case... Those who simply don't behave with three kids... I still have the song from the last lake visit (a long time ago) in my head: "I'm the first in the water, I'm in the deep..." 800 times in a row, the mother on the shore on her phone... that was the end of the lake visit... Unfortunately, this leads to staring at the next family who wants to settle by the lake and thinking: oh God, please not... And they might be quite nice...

When I was a child, something like that just didn’t exist, my parents would have told me off if I screamed like that...

I'm sorry for you and cannot confirm that. As a family, we are always very well received and almost everyone speaks to the children in a very pleasant manner.

I see it exactly the same way and I would claim that people in Germany like dogs more than children percentage-wise.

Example on vacation: Turkey vs Germany = Turkey is the winner here when it comes to child-friendliness.

I am talking about the weighting, of course not everyone from Germany hates children.

On vacation, especially your money is popular and it works out excellently through children

For the complainers here, I recommend the article "You live here in paradise" on taz.
Distorted perception, in my opinion. There are many advantages here for families and children.

What I find shocking is this pigeonholing - children and then the peace is gone - and this consequence, then selling the home without giving the new neighbor a chance.

Where does this insight actually come from?
The neighbors may already have experience with children and have decided for themselves not to want to live in direct proximity.
Maybe your brother's children have already "had an effect," without you noticing or knowing?
You also have to see that they may have lived here in the utmost peace and quiet for 20 years, say. It always depends on the relation and one's own pain threshold. I think Sandrasix put it very fittingly:

If I had a Ferrari, MY loud car wouldn’t bother me.
But if someone drives along the street during my usual quiet times, it could annoy me
I think that's human.

On vacation, your money is especially popular and it works very well through children

And what if these people didn’t earn anything from it and still acted that way, just with the hope that income could be generated?

Then it would have to be the same in Germany, where you take vacations, comparisons can be drawn here, and it has been confirmed time and again.

Every country has its advantages... some deliver quality and punctuality, others hospitality. Of course, there are exceptions!
