Hi ladies,
I'm concerned for one of the daughters of my neighbours, I was speaking to another lady who lives in my block a couple of weeks ago and she told me that sometimes the parents of this child who is about 12 is locked out of the house late at night and made to sit in the stair well of our block.
I dismissed this as general gossip and thought no more of it until tonight when my partner told me that when he left this morning for work at 5am she was sitting on the stairs in pjs and a coat crying, and that before hand he had heard her crying and saying no. I'm battling with myself whether I should speak to somebody and report it as I already have an ongoing dispute with this family about the amount of noise they make as they live above me and have wooden floor throughout their flat, meaning I can hear every step they take, every bang and noise which really disturbs my 7 month olds sleeping. They have two younger children a girl and a boy who run around a lot which is understandable as they are children and children play but I also hear them crying and what sometimes seems to be them being chased down the hall and smacked.
What i am worried about is reporting something and nothing being found which is untoward, thus leaving me looking like I am just trying to cause trouble for a family that I already have problems with, in saying that if I didn't report it and the poor child was being I'll treated I would feel terrible and don't think I could forgive myself!
Somebody please tell me what is the best way to handle this situation?

. If you phone SS i'd explain that you and the family are having issues but that you are worried about the girl.
they won't know it's you & I guarantee even if they thought it was you they'd be too ashamed to say anything
