Italian temperament

I have relatively new neighbours living under me. The couple from hell moved out, and in moved an Italian woman with a kid. Now, you know my attitude towards kids, but I gotta say with this family the kid is nothing compared to her Mum. More often than hearing the kid scream the Mum does. On top of her lungs in Italian. I would assume to her kid, since they are the only ones living there. Unless she screams to herself, but what would be the point?
