Learn English – the word for “nuisance” as an adjective

adjectivesphrase-requests

Can anyone propose an adjective of nuisance? Or a word that can be used to communicate that sense?

The place where I want to use the word is as follows. I am talking about when children are abused and ignored by parents (as a result of high population and no family planning) and the children grow up to become not-so-constructive citizens, such as thieves and petty criminals.

What could be the word for such an outcome?
Also, what is an adjective for nuisance?

Best Answer

Nuisance itself occurs as an adjective as well as a noun. Here's one relevant citation from the OED:

She takes to the streets daily in response to calls from tenants to investigate nuisance neighbours.
