Nuisance Neighbour's Children
What should you do about neighbour's children who persist in hitting a basketball off your car parked in your adjacent driveway?
Basketball net is in their driveway but ball constantly hitting off car. Mentioned this to neighbour previously who said they're not allowed to play when car is in drive, but seems to have gone back on his word about this and lets them carry on playing.
Only a matter of time before some damage done!

A conciliatory approach to settle the matter is usually the best solution, you have spoken to the parents over the children playing before which appears to have been effective for a limited time, it may be they have now forgotten or hope you have forgotten that this conversation took place.
As rc has done you can ask a solicitor to write to the parents...

We had similar with a football breaking our fencing with a single parent father 'not bothered' as it was 'part of growing up'. We ended up reluctantly
having a soilicitors letter sent at the cost of future cooperation we suspect, but at least the nuisance stopped. A pity, but increasingly it seems kids rule,OK!

As rc has done you can ask a solicitor to write to the parents reminding them that they may be liable for damages if they fail to exercise the control that would be expected of a parent given the child’s age, but this action may lose you future co-operation as rc suspects.
