Hello
that often happens.
Of course, it is understandable that parents no longer hear the noise and that they are happy when their children can romp outside. That’s when the potential for conflict arises.
A long time ago, I had a second apartment (for work) in a distant city. Several apartment blocks grouped around a courtyard. The courtyard was paved. Three couples with children had discovered this refuge for their kids. The children could play unsupervised. Which they did extensively. The worst were the tricycles with plastic wheels. Incredibly loud. When I asked the parents to replace the plastic wheels with rubber ones (which, according to my research, was easily possible), this was firmly refused for cost reasons. I then looked for another apartment. Also, the communication between the parents themselves or with the little rascals was shouting from balcony to balcony.

And this behavior of these parents is not antisocial? Strange.
Good for those who can afford to simply move their apartment or sell their house, they can count themselves lucky. Generally, I would avoid such apartment blocks if necessary; the potential for conflict is preprogrammed.
Those who cannot do that must remind annoying neighbors of their duties. Period.
If you get such new neighbors as an owner, the conflict is preprogrammed.
Not always, but more and more often.
This has nothing to do with petty-mindedness or choleric temperament, but because living together in close quarters requires behavior that does not have to be admonished every time – like with small children (usually the result of failed parenting). Nowadays there are parents so stupid that you can ONLY approach them directly, because any hint with the fence post – judging by their facial expression – hardly has any effect.
Most hot-tempered neighbors only expect self-reflection, not individualism* and provocation which ALWAYS! ends up with lawyers and courts.
The fact is: There is no right/law to noise and impairment of the quality of life of others. My freedom ends where it could permanently disturb others. I expect that from others too. Period. It also ends up with the court ruling this way 90% of the time.
* Those who want individualism and to literally let loose must find property or rental units that allow such noise and space.
What I want is one thing, what I can do is another. Then it also works with the neighbors.
