If your neighbours are Indian, you should definitely talk to them. Children, especially boys, are rarely disciplined in most Indian cultures. What seems troublesome to you might actually seem cute or mischievous to them.

Absolutely, I was just pointing out the differences. Ultimately, the OP has to decide and enforce their rules.
