I have yet to hear a baby cry so loudly that I can hear it through my walls. So far in the 3 years I've lived here, not one instance can I recall or know of babies crying that loudly. Kids, who're able to talk and walk, they can be loud yes but they're manageable. It's lazy parenting that lets them be that way. Pets, generally, they're going to be loud and they're hard to control because nobody puts in the effort.
Now I have a question back at you - did you read the part where I said that some owners fucking suck at being owners or did you selectively skip that part to make the comment that you've made? Learn to read, it'd help you sometime.
Yeah I did read the part that some owners neglect their pets. However, two mistakes don't make a right take. There are bad pet owners, and there are good pet owners, and the same rule applies to both, which is unfairly punishing good pet owners... A rule which several landlords have, a rule which will render people who had pets before their housing worsening situation to either abandon their pets or going homeless. You stated that "pets are noisy", and this concept alone is generalization. Cats aren't. Some dog breeds (Border Collie, Huskies) aren't.
As for babies, yeah, it's a rule sometimes found being practiced by landlords, they don't accept tenants who have a baby. I'm not sure how's this situation in US, but here in Brazil this is a commonly found rule, which is an infuriating rule, and that's why my comment sounded passionately raged, because it's so unfair by many degrees...
