Starting to get on the rents nerves , swinging in the trees outside our house and probebly will soon be one less kid when one of them falls and breaks their neck.
We sorted it out before by banging the fence panels and pretty much pissing ourselves when they ran away, but these are a family that have just moved in rolleyes

Stupid asking on here obviously, but best bet to go knocking on the door , see the parents and express our concerns?

You can try asking the parents, but I rather think the answer is going to rhyme with suck loft.

But worth a try, you never know.

Christ some grumpy lot on here.

Climbing and swinging on trees is what children do.

I know I used to, are kids not allowed to now?

Yep kids are allowed to do that nowadays, but depends what time of day and how close to your house they are. If its anything like where i live, then it will be at stupid o'clock, the language would make a docker blush, and it will be on the trees in your garden the little toe rags!!!



Oh, and you cant speak to the parents, as they dont believe their little angel would do that(or set fire to someones garage) or anything wrong, and if you suggest otherwise, you get threatened with "the lads coming round your gaff"

The parents want peace and quiet, the house is slightly on its own as a new estate was built next to it years ago. But yes you do have a fair point i was exactly the same and didnt see the dangers of it at the time, but really its the screaming and stuff thats getting annoying

I think the correct term you are looking for is "pesky kids".

Buy an air rifle, when they're swinging high in the tree a shot to the chest should do it. They'll break something so wont be able to play outside for a few months. You'll have to recharge the rifle after that though.

hehe Yup.

The kids near me have one of those big trampolines in their garden. Maybe I should sue them for invasion of my human right to a private life every time their little heads bounce above the fence line.

Tie a big nasty dog to the tree Or go out there and just stand and stare at them from about 5 yards away.

OR.....tell them where the better trees are!

Fence off the offending area and claim squatters rights, that should sort it!

ETA: Or a can of anti-climb paint and a brush. biggrin

Smear the tree branches with your own faeces, and I guarantee the kids will soon find something else to do very quickly.

I also gave the same advice to a PHer who complained of yoofs playing football on the grass outside his front garden, or rather using football as an excuse to be obnoxious noisy foul-mouthed slobs, at his expense. A few handfuls of human dung tossed across the grass in the dead of night and they'll soon find another place to be kicking around on ......a piece of ground in your home town........ Waiting for someone or something to show you the way........ Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain....... You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you...... No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun........

Sorry, got carried away there hippy
