Any parent knows that getting their baby to sleep through the night is exhausting but it seems one couple was thinking about more than just her own lack of sleep and they’re now going viral because of it.
Someone recently shared the hilarious letter they got from their neighbor on social media, in which the neighbor apologizes in advance for any disturbance they may experience as the parents try to sleep-train their kid using the “cry-it-out method.”
“I regret to inform you that we have begun sleep training our son,” the letter begins. “After many sleepless nights thanks to the dreaded 4-month sleep regression, we have decided it is time to start the cry-it-out method.” It then noted, “If you hear the cries please pray for me and know I am also crying and going insane,” adding, “I’m very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you, let’s hope it doesn’t last long.”
Realizing this isn’t going to be easy on anyone, the note continues, “If you start to feel hatred towards us just give us a friendly knock on the door and I will bring you a shot of tequila to mend our neighbor-ship,” adding, “It’s cheap tequila but it will calm your nerves, it’s been tested and proven to work by yours truly.”
- The person who shared the letter on social media captioned it, “Neighbors left this on the door… I’m gonna bake them some cookies” and the post has since received over 1.1 million likes and thousands of comments.
- “With a note like that I would not care what they do,” one person shared, while another added, “This is how you neighbor… well played…”
- Finally, another commented, “We need more neighbors like them in the world.”
