Hi OP. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate and are so tired and busy and this threat of eviction must be so stressful. I hope you can use the resources provided here and get some help to give you time before looking for another solution. I am sorry some people here are simply awful and feel so smart and righteous arguing the rights of the other tenants. Ignore them and just focus on what works best for you and your son.

Also what if OP can’t move to a SFH, should she just be homeless then? OP I very much hope you can find a way to fight this, this is discrimination!!

Some posters are not very kind. It reminds me of a thread about soccer for preschoolers and one poster was up in arms about the SN kid should not join team sports because they would disrupt the other kids and it's not fair to the other kids and how it would ruin it for the other kids. Nothing shocks me anymore.

I live in a condo and I’m really sorry but I would also complain about noise. You have a right to live your life, but so do we. Good luck! I’d look for a SFH.

NP. Hmmm, sounds to me that in this situation, *you* would need to look into moving into a SFH, not the OP. Don't like noisy apartments? Don't live in them.

I'm shocked at the number of people on here with such little empathy.

It has nothing to do with empathy. OP's son's right to make as much noise as he feels like does not supersede the rights of other residents nearby. Extra sound proofing requires removal and replacement of drywall, and won't help with noise he makes in the hallway or outside the unit. Relocating them hardly makes sense - they'll just have a new group of residents complaining then.

And you are incorrect. Let's think this through. PP in the condo isn't doing anything disturbing and doesn't need to be the party that would move. In your scenario, the entire building connected to a noisy party would need to move rather than just a single disturbing party. That's not how it works.

Incorrect. Tenants have the right to quiet enjoyment of their unit. “The right of a property owner or tenant to enjoy his or her property without interference. ... Leases and rental agreements often contain a “covenant of quiet enjoyment,” expressly obligating the landlord to ensure that tenants live undisturbed.”Apr 17, 2019

And the landlord has the responsibility to provide it, while not discriminating. Adding soundproofing would probably not be an unreasonable accommodation to request.

Thank you all, my child wears a Helmet full Coverage, Braces on his legs, his wheelchair stays in the back of the car, if he gets tired of walking, we have the doctors Rpt, and a prescription for a Emotional Support Animal.. I do have help, l think for peace of mind, we will have to move, it will always be something else..

There is absolutely no indication, based on what OP has written, that there is discrimination at play here. There *may* be, but there's simply no way of telling at this point.

You seem to be under the impression that merely asking a family with a special needs child to move because of excessive noise constitutes discrimination. It does not.

Also, if it was you who made the comment abotu disparate impact (and I think it was, from the writing style), you are way off base.

Stop the histrionics. OP has been given resources; she shoudl explore them. You shouls stop saying stupid shit.

I'm sorry it has taken this long to respond, we live in PGC MD, in a private Apt complex,, we have handicap pk, no curbside ramp,, in order to use my son's wheelchair (when needed) we use the grass next to the stairs, I tk the WC down backwards and I come up the grass backwards..
