We live in an apartment building...a very unfortunate place when you have a two year old. We moved in when we got married, pre-baby. From the first week we were moved in, the lady downstairs has complained we make too much noise. She claims we were moving furniture around and waking her up at 3am, but at the time we moved in, we had no furniture! She has been up pounding on our door at least three times a week for almost three years. Now she is starting to complain about the noise our son makes. While I sympathize that having noise from upstairs can be hard to deal with, she has demanded that we tell our two year old to not run, not to play between the hours of 7pm and 9am, and that he not cry at all. It is a small apartment, and we can't afford to move. I take my son to the park as often as possible to get his energy out, but I feel that a toddler can't help but play, and he doesn't yet understand about disturbing people downstairs.
