Different people have different sensitivity to noise. Families with young children will certainly generate noise as part of their normal activities. When a noise sensitive resident meets a family with young children staying above the trouble starts.

Both sides should try to understand each other and compromise. Asking families with young children to be as noiseless as childless couples is impractical but parents can mitigate the worse like running, jumping and slamming doors. In the end it is no point to keep complaining if your neighbour can't meet your standard of noise. They could get offended and make it worse for you as Building Maintenance have very limited powers. If you can't put up with it your solution is to move out.
