I was the first person to move into a new building and I later found out the walls were very thin. I could hear EVERYTHING coming from the hallway. Luckily for me my new neighbors that moved in after had a toddler and a newborn. Yay! The time it took for them to get in/out of their apartment felt forever. I would hear the kids crying/yelling/talking loudly/running, doing what “kids do”. I also worked from home. People on calls would hear the noise. I honestly hated living there and I never complained to them because another neighbor did and they got real nasty. Their response was “kids will be kids”. So I honestly think you should consider the impact on others and not just pull the “kids will be kids” card immediately.
