Re: Why do people feel it's okay to walk across someones grass

i agree! unless its YOUR lawn you have no business walking on it. when i show houses, people make fun of me because i will walk all the way around to the walkway instead of just walking across the grass. but i always tell them that i would be pizzed if someone walked on my lawn so its just respect.

once we had a delivery guy drive up the middle of our lawn!! It was at night- he didnt even notice that he TOTALLY missed the driveway by 30 feet until we told him when he came up to the door- i guess he didnt feel the car jumping the curb?

Yeah, I have to figure out what to say to one of my neighbors. She lets her cats run around the neighborhood, and the cat is constantly in our yard, and uses my garden as a big catbox. Since I am now pregnant, this is even more of an issue for me, but even when I'm not, I just don't want someone elses cat taking a dump in my yard.

Re: Why do people feel it's okay to walk across someones grass

I live on a corner and the mailman always cuts across my lawn to the neighbor on one side of us and then back around to go to us and then the rest of the other block. It never bothered me. However, I've seen a neighbor I don't even really know cut across my grass right near the corner. There's a few bushes right on the corner and he cut across my grass instead of going around - a whole 6 or 8 feet - and I told him to stop. That one I didnt even understand - people are bizarre.

I cut across people's grass sometimes instead of going up their walkways Chat Icon Chat Icon but only when I have a reason to be on their property and know them. Instead of using way out of the way walkways mainly

I have to admit I don't really care if people walk on my lawn. As long as they aren't throwing stuff all over it or ripping it up, whats the harm?

I'm the same way. And when I walk my dog, I stay to the curb or the sidewalk out of respect. As long as no one dirties up my lawn, I don't really care.
