Sadly it's the same for birds. Before I even wanted one, I made damn sure to look up how annoying they are. I still love my Pepper but, damn do I sometimes need to feel like I wanna walk away. Then I just let her scream into my ear everyday because she's still better than some humans. That, and I willingly submitted to the fact that parrots are awesome and the squawking is just a part of it like a baby that cries 24/7 lol.
