I can't believe what goes on in this neighborhood. The people a few houses down, Jo and Brent, fight continually. It usually starts with Brent and Jo's daughter, Katie. Katie talks back to Brent and treats him like crap. She acts like a spoiled little brat. When Brent finally reaches the point of no return, he fights back by saying that Katie is a "whore". This causes a backlash by Jo, who goes after Brent with a vengeance, yelling and screaming, and hitting and kicking him. She even locks him outside. One time he had to sleep on the neighbor's porch because she wouldn't let him back in the house. They yell so loud sometimes that it wakes me up at night and I can hear them carrying on for hours at a time. I want to call the cops, but that just isn't me. I wish they would just grow up and stop their childish behavior.

Tracy and Jon are even tired of it. All Brent wants to do is go over and get drunk to try to forget about his problems, and then he ends up sleeping in their basement half the time. It is obvious that Jo uses Brent for his money. She is such a gold digger. She is also a little "too friendly" with her ex, if you ask me. The fact that she once tried to run him over with her car doesn't stop him from trying to get back with her. In fact, Katie eggs them on. She wants her parents to get back together and she wants to get away from Brent permanently. She thinks he is a nasty old pervert.

I wish they would get things straightened out so I could sleep peacefully at night again. Oh, the drama...
