THEIR kids loved playing in the lake outside their house.
But the noise of their frolicking drew complaints from their neighbours.
So one dad decided to take things into his own hands – by erecting a 6ft high, 350ft long fence along the property line between their house and their neighbours'.
"When we got fed up with our s**tty neighbours harassing the kids when they play in the pond," he wrote over his TikTok video, which began with a shot of his four kids gleefully jumping into the water.
"Kids should be able to be loud and laugh outside!"
Although they had already put in a wire fence and "privacy trees", the trees hadn't grown as high as they wanted.

"So we put up a fence on the property line, 6 feet high… 250 feet long," he continued.
"Enjoy the view, a**holes."
The fence installation didn't go down too well with the neighbours, with the woman allegedly turning on "her hose on to try and flood the area".
Her reported attempt didn't work, however, and the HUGE fence remained solidly in place.
