[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Similar issue as to PP re kids assuming right to play in our yard.  A few friendly but direct conversations were held about the fact that our yard was not community property.  Neighbors held a large, loud party. Party spilled into our yard with games being played that were tearing up our grass and then rocks being thrown into our yard.  Things escalated leading to a physical assault.  Cops were called and neighbor was arrested.  Went to court and the neighbor was convicted of assault. We became the pariahs.  [/quote]

Ugh! That's awful. 
I must make sure to put up a fence next time I move.[/quote]

Yes, fences make good neighbors.  Our neighbors did a major renovation on a 1938 colonial, rain barrel and all. Beautiful renovation, then they turned out to be complete slobs and their kids seemed to get off running through our yard and touring our other neighbors dogs who were fenced in their backyard.  Fast forward a few years of living beside these slobs and their weeds and poison oak and ivy everywhere, we had a fence installed while they were at work.  No, we did not warn them, and that was intentional.  Once they redirected their run off into our yard we had enough.  And yes, we called the permit office and they did NOTHING.  Mud all over our walkway and driveway every time it rained. Priceless to see some of the worst neighbors I've ever lived beside shocked when they came home to see a six foot board on board fence buried into the ground.  No more poison ivy, no more weeds and no more using my yard to torture someone else's pet.  So peaceful.  [b]And no, I don't give two F s if they ever speak to me again.[/b][/quote]
