Hi All,
Can the children who are living in their parents home, their parents being the legal owners of the house still, if they find that some damage to their property, the house is being done, do they have a legal right to lodge a complaint and initiate proceedings against the people doing so?
If by some act of a neighbour the damage to the house which is legally owned by the parents, can the children who live with their parents in the very same house, lodge a complaint and initiate proceedings. Can they be considered the lawful complainants?
Regards,

Yes. The childrens can lodge any genuine complaints.. Untill the children's ownership denied by the parents their ownership is lawful.. So they can..

For making complaint in the circumstances, one need not even be a owner. Suppose I am a tenant in a place, and some damage is caused to the property by neighbour, I still have a right to make a complain. That right nobody can deny to me. In fact, if I do not react to the situation or bring it to the notice of the owner, the Owner of the property would charge me of dereliction of my responsibilities as a person of ordinary prudence.
