As we’re in tech, loud or noise are very implicit and can really range.

Reading this on Amsterdam, I know many others countries where there won’t be such a discussion at all about a soccer field outside a building.

I come from a place where children and the population is noisy due to many factors. every time we went as family on a holiday (With dutch people as an example), I saw my children become less and less vocal only to become loud as they were once we were back home.

Recently, we’ve relocated to Spain. It’s only a few months but still, I thought my children would get become less noisy similar to what we saw on holidays after a while…

But nothing changed, and also hearing other children here, they’re in the same “noisy” levels as my kids.

So there’s also a cultural aspect that needs to be considered about what is loud or how children are expected to behave, add immigration to that and cultural differences and you got so many factors.
