‘Kids kept breaking into my garden to play – one thing stopped them’

A man who had moved into a new house was left stunned when he saw a group of kids playing in his garden – but he came up with a genius way to stop them.

A man has been praised for teaching his ‘entitled’ neighbourhood children a lesson after they began trespassing into his garden to use his swimming pool.

The single man detailed how he relocated to a new house in a ‘really nice neighbourhood’. After settling in, he decided to enjoy his new swimming pool. However, upon opening the back door, he was surprised to find a group of children already making use of it.

He recalled: “I thought, am I in the wrong house? I pinched myself. Nope, I am in my home. So I sat outside to watch the kids to make sure they stayed safe while swimming. After a couple of hours, they got out and left, saying hi as they left. Just as they were leaving.”

As they departed, he asked them not to use his pool due to liability concerns, but they seemed to disregard his request. A few days later, he heard the sound of children outside his window and discovered them once again playing in his pool.

Following this, he devised a plan that would not only enhance his life but also put an end to the unsolicited babysitting. He shared on Quora: “Like I said before, I am single with no companion. I had always wanted a dog. I thought not only would I have a life companion, I would also have a way to guard my home.”

“So one day I brought my friend home. I installed a dog door and got him a huge comfy dog bed. Now since my dog has access to the back yard I posted warning signs by the gate to state “Guard dog on premises. Do not enter.

“Did not think too much about it. Now since I got a friend I wanted to be active with him. We go on walks, go to the park to let him stretch his legs and run, as well as mine

“One morning I heard the doorbell and the dog barking to let me know someone is at the door. So I got up and went to the door.

“There were kids with towels standing at my door. I asked what they wanted. They told me they were afraid of my dog, and could I put him up so they could swim. I told them ‘I am sorry, but you are going to have to find another place to play’.

“I also told them every once in a while it would be OK, but only if they asked first and one of their parents was there to supervise them. I never heard from them again. I am not saying you should do this, but that is how I solved my issue. Also I am glad I got a dog. He is my best friend and goes with me pretty much everywhere. Where you see me, you see Kronos.”
