Sad loss in snow.

If you raise your kids to be the type of human beings who wantonly crush other kids sand castles, you all deserve a snow castle tower through the guts

I'm currently dealing with neighborhood kids sledding into my chain link fence. I've seen several absolutely stun themselves on it. Yesterday I asked them to stop sledding into the fence, nicely but for like the 15th time since Monday. They took that as a challenge I guess, because they all started doing it. It's going to cost me about $300 to fix it, as long as the posts are still straight.

Two have had to go to the er this week, and they went right back to sledding into my fence. The parents don't care at all. Yesterday the cops managed to show up in time to catch a few and get their names, but about an hour later they were back at it.

I want to replace the fence with something more substantial, for privacy, but I'm actually worried one of these feral children will kill themselves on it

Dig a 3 feet deep trench in front of the fence and use it for composting

Well, they were warned repeatedly. Bring on the spikes!

I have lilacs planted as a hedge along the back of my property and they've been sledding into that, too.
