Op - you, your OH and your 7 year should continue to enjoy playing football wherever the f you like. I’m serious.
I’m grateful to see your OH taking the time to go out and play / do an activity with your 7yr old....relationships like that make my heart warm....it’s genunly lovely to see....
There are far too many that just want to leave their young adults to xboxes, fortnite or ipads...
I grew up, literally playing footie in car parks - and faced the same idiocy....
Put up an equally arbitrary sign saying ‘no minis’
What is wrong with people? It is a communal car park - not a play park - Why do people not take their children to the actual park?
Kids (or adults) should not be able to do what they want, whenever they want, and to hell with the consequences if it causes upset, or inconvenience to anyone - a terrible lesson to instill in children
In a block of flats, more consideration is needed on common areas, as folk wont have their own outside space, it is all communal by the sounds of this
Play areas are designed for children
Car parks are designed for cars. These are not play areas. It is not rocket science TBFWith love, POSR

In order to prove this ridiculous point (from the OPs husband I mean, not you) - It really is not worth the risk.
Worse, they dont have to break any agreement at all. If the LL decides he's fed up with being petered by residents he might serve notice anyway just for a quiet life. No reason is needed.
Or, he may not care.No way to know until it happens.0 -
When you live in a close knit community you should be very careful. Not the right attitude.
Don’t take life for granted, all it takes is your OH to rub up the wrong person and you cannot measure stupidity. Look at how people get stabbed and killed, or get kicked like a foot ball.
You never know old person may have son in gangland and decide to play football with your family, your OH won’t be able to complain to management from the grave.
I have seen in the local news people being killed for looking the wrong way, you just got to learn to live your life and not interfere with others.0 -

He must fall into the worse 1% of dads in this country.....
There's nothing brilliant about a dad playing with his son, that's just normal.
There is something lazy and immoral about a father happy to upset other people in front of his son, though.
The best way if being a father here is to be empathetic to the community around him. This would be a great lesson for his son.
A ball is merely a tool for the dad to build a relationship with his son and teach him how to care/ instill moral values. He's doing it all wrong.0 -
There is nothing stopping the adult from being a good role model and taking the child to the local park either. Just doing it in the carpark does nothing to help the child meet other children either. If they went to the local park they could have a good game with a lot of running about and they could meet other children. This isn't kids playing in a car park it is kid playing with idle adult in a carpark. The adult can't be bothered to take the child to somewhere suitable.
No different to their neighbours parking in the visitors/disabled parking space - can't be bothered/feel entitled.0 -

And again parking in the disabled/visitor space, which you fail to mention.0 -

This car park is really small there are only 3 houses. The local park would mean a much better game so I can't understand why they don't do that? The carpark is going to be too small to do more than bounce the ball about while standing watching it. It won't make much difference to the exercise. Plus the father is too idle to take the child to the local park so he isn't a good role model for exercising either.
Going to the park has additional benefits. Hopefully a much nicer place to play football and finding like minded people to play football with?0 -
