Makes Sense

If you are in your room watching TV with your TV moved to the side of the room away from the other bedroom walls at a volume low enough to where you can almost not hear it and you are then texted that your tv is too loud. What would you think? Wouldn't that upset you, when you then decide to just turn it off and you are then told your being dramatic. Makes sense to me to turn it off ! Why burn up your TV run power when you can't hear it?

Can you attach headphones to it and listen to it? I would be pissed off with someone who sent me a text about my TV being loud when it wasn't loud at all

No! I checked into that and my model of TV doesn't comply with them. Yeah and because I said more about it the next day, not being mean. She got mad at me, saying I kept going on about it.

@dfollin @Ineeddentures is asking the right question, and I want to know too. Can you get headphones attached to the TV so you can watch in peace?

That's really terrible. I would be really pissed when somebody tells me that. I would really find it difficult to stay in the place where people would complain about what I do or what I enjoy doing.

I have no choice I am on a lease and I have a limited income and not enough to qualify for my own place. I need a better income but I don't want to be too far from my grandkids.

That would annoy me too honestly, like you already did the considerate thing by moving it and keeping it low. Turning it off after that isn't dramatic, it's just you saying why bother if it's basically pointless anyway. People calling it dramatic when you're the one compromising is kinda backwards.
