    I'm in need of abit of help and advice...

    Me and h2b have a 7 month old daughter and she goes to bed around 7 - 730pm every night! Our neighbours have a 2 year old little girl who is very active all day and all night [and im not kidding] The last 4 nights our neighbours little girl has been screaming the house down and she keeps being so loud she is waking me and h2b up and our daughter this means she is so tired, Their 2 year old doesnt go to bed till around 1030pm - 1130pm and its no fair on our daughter to put her to bed that late

    I havent got a clue what to do about this, I have spoken to them before about this and we got nowhere,

    You could contact the council if the noise is excessive and they can then warn them about noise levels; in theory. In practice, I have no idea if they would do this when the person making the noise is a 2 year old who can't control themselves, and they can't exactly force her parents to adopt better parenting skills. It could also lead to a very strained relationship with your neighbours and might lead to feelings of animosity, which could make living next to them unpleasant.

    I would try speaking to them again, maybe writing them a letter, explaining clearly and calmly what the issue is and how it's affecting you and your family. The problem is, bad habits can be hard to break, and they might be in a bit of a vicious cycle; and it's kind of dificult for you to suggest parenting technqiues unless you know them really well.

    So in all honesty, I'm not sure what you can realistically do, apart from maybe hope that she settles down as she gets older, which I know isn't ideal.. :-s

    can you try again but try to spin it around asking them how they would feel if the situation were to be revered? Are the other neighbours that feel the same way as yourself?

    Its so hard, were the people who live beside them! I know she hasnt got a routine she sleeps in her parents bedroom and bed aswell and i know she is ill all the time it might be that but im not 100% sure at the moment if she is well or not. We dont want to fall out with them as thay are lovely people, I sometimes look after their daughter in the evenings and she is good as cold with me, I gess ive got all this to come later on.x
