Get a lawyer and evict them.

Get a lawyer who does nothing but evictions.

First In New York city as eslewhere A tenant CANNOT tell you they are using the security for the last months rent.

IT 's YOUR deciesion NOT theirs!

So give them a 3 day notice ot pay Mays rent or move....then contact a landlord lawyer and start the eviction process.

Second you have to evict the kids as well, they have NO rights to that apartment.

Also the security deposits were transferred to you at the closing, so you can use that for any of the damages, and sue them for the excess.
