Anything to keep the kids off the lawn, right Radcliffe?? ...


No problems with kids in my yard. Radburn has the parks for the
kids. Each house has the kitchen on the street (mostly cul-de-sac)
side, and another door that leads either directly to the park (ours)
or via a walkway between houses to the park. See http://radburn.org.

Also many people here adher to the village theory: It takes a
village to educate the kids. Very old-fashioned perhaps, but we try
to keep it that way.



That's a grouchy old man joke, Han. Traditionally something old men
are always yelling at the neighborhood kids:

Yes, but I'd like a penny for every time it happened for real in the US.
Just for a week, or maybe just a day. Could use it to help feed some
hungry people ...
