I would tell the neighbor that the tenants child has a disability.

Income Source: self-employed in construction for the previous 5 yearsGross monthly income (optional): $6000Monthly debt obligations appearing on credit report, plus (if applicable) personal rent and alimony/child support/etc: $770FICO: ExcellentCredit issues: NoneAdditional details:Just looking for some input and constructive criticism on my plan. 

Occupancy by Veteran’s Spouse or Dependent Child Occupancy (or intent to occupy) by the spouse or dependent child satisfies the occupancy requirement for a veteran who is on active duty and cannot personally occupy the dwelling within a reasonable time.

They only provided 1 of 3 keys as lease states they had, 2 fist size holes in the walls, which the tenant actually emailed me about and apologized, along with a door they tried to put back on the hinges to their bedroom but was broken by their child in doing so which they also emailed me about and apologized. 

You could also suggest your tenants call child protective services if there is no supervision for young children and call the police for late night noise disturbances.

There is no magical door that a child walks through when they turn 18 that suddenly teaches them responsibility.

If a child predator wanted to live in an apartment complex, I would automatically deny.

Both had poor credit though, with no mortgages/houses ever, he had child support issues and she had a few small bills like smud bill unpaid.

Take a look at what the tenant is reporting and ask, "Would I want to live here like this with my young child?"

Today you would get arrested for child abuse.
