first i have the most unfriendly neighbors so talking doesnt work?

My upstairs neighbors have the most noisy out of control child.Not sure what age but i would say between 5 to7.Personally I think she should be in school but thats not my buisiness.She home all day,and I know kids wanna play but come on,She never waks,always running from one room to the other ,back and forth.If shes not doing that shes stomping her feet,playing ball,just all sorts of noise.It goes on different times but especially between 6 to 11:30pm.No bedtime obviously.I was woken up with banging and thumping at 2:30 in the morning.I tried banging my broom on the ceiling,letting them know its getting too much,now she stomps right back.ive spoken with the buildings super,nothing has been done.Dont know if I should call 311 or leave a note.But I cant take this crap.The parents arent controlling this little monster.Any ideas......

    Have you ever thought the child may have a mental condition? There are autistic children that wake up in the middle of the night, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing. Some parents won't take their child anywhere because the child can't take it (like the noise, the light, etc.). People will not understand how difficult it is to raise a child with autism.

    Maybe that's not the case. You should ask the manager again.

    What a horror. Keep calling the super. Especially late. That poor child should go to bed by 8pm. You know what is going to happen though: The one who complains is the one who has to move. I know it sounds drastic but that is the way it is. Document your complaints with letters or emails so you can prove the problem exists should you need to get out of a lease.

    Try talking to the kid. If he's that old, he might respond to your female niceness and you could appeal to his sense of guilt. You know, like "Hey, you handsome little devil, come here and give me a hug. Aw. Hey, could you be a little more quiet at night when I'm trying to sleep cause I live right below you, okay, and if you promise to be a good boy, I'll buy you an ice cream cone and some skittles, oh kay?"

    Call child protection service. She should be in school.
