Um, just call the cops when you hear the kids screaming.

Say you are worried about their safety.

But you should do one thing first. Seriously listen to what they are screaming about. Learn a bit first or long-term parents might listen to the same thing and simply roll their eyes when you say "they sound like they are in trouble!!"

Sometimes that distinction is harder than others. But there still is aline between happy squealing and shreiking as loud as you can to garner attention.

The strangest thing is, some of these kids do not realize that they are attracting the attention of people other than who they are screaming at. I see a baby shriek in the grocery store, I stop and ask "what?" They are SO suprised that someone besides mommy stopped, they usually just stop instantly.

But this is, and will always be, a tough subject.
