Sample answer by Lifestyle Training Centre:

Dear Mr. Stafford,

I trust this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concern affecting my daily life, seeking your assistance to resolve it amicably.

Recently facing redundancy, I spend much time at home. Unfortunately, disturbances caused by your children’s activities, including playing indoors and loud music, have made finding peace challenging.

While understanding children’s need for enjoyment, I hoped the situation would naturally improve. However, it seems to be escalating, prompting my letter.

I kindly request your assistance in speaking to your children about being mindful of the noise, as it affects others in the building. A simple explanation from you could make a significant difference.

I hope we can resolve this matter amicably without ill-feeling. If the situation persists, regrettably, I may need to explore involving the authorities to ensure a peaceful living environment. I hope it does not come to that, and your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Jack Smith
