We have asked them many times and it stops for like one day then starts again. We have called noise control so many times it's just not deterring them. We have a 2 year old that can't sleep some nights and a 17 year old that is in her last year of school and with the noise she wakes up tired for school. I am at the end of my patience with them. I've even considered asking for a transfer from our home that we have lived in over 10 years. Any advice would be much appreciated
