[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think these kids are being very rude. I would never allow my kids to use the neighbor's yard as a cut-through, especially without asking. I think you are well within your rights to tell them to knock it off. Do their parents even know they are cutting through your yard? But I would not go with a "two times a week" option, that is just muddying the waters. Either no, they can't come through your yard, or yes they can. [/quote] This. I’m surprised so many people are okay with their children trespassing. You don’t get to freely walk on another person’s property because it’s convenient for you. [/quote] Unless you live in a really friendly neighborhood. This is the kind of thing they talk about when they say "sense of community" and so on. Not a bunch of old bats complaining about the neighborhood kids all the time. OP is the type that makes a neighborhood not "family friendly."[/quote] Yep, we live in that type of neighborhood with a bus stop situation almost identical to what OP describes. The shortest walk to the school (not bus stop but same idea) from our culdesac is through someone's backyard and between two homes on the street behind us. Do you know what those two families did? The two husbands put in beautiful pavers between the homes for everyone. [/quote] They put those pavers in because your rude children were ruining their yard and they decided it was worth the trouble of spending $$$ to install pavers vs starting an issue in the neighborhood. You're entire oblivious. [/quote]
