Problem solved?

PHRatz Sep 11, 2005 11:04 AM

Maybe it is, we didn't dig up the parents yet but you know kids tell their parents things.
There are still parents in this country who teach their kids how to behave so I'm wondering if when the bothersome kids told their parents that I'd asked them to get off my fence & leave.. could it be that the parents had been unaware that their kid's were making pests of themselves?
Could it be that once the parents found this out they told their kids to stop being rude and stop bothering the neighbors? When I was a kid that's exactly what my mother would have done.
I understand they're kids & not everybody has a big tortoise in the yard so of course they are curious but they were going to far.
The kids have not been back in 9 days now, I've not gotten any complaints from parents so problem solved?
I hope so but we're still going to plant that prickly pear cactus up front to try to prevent fence climbing.

WOW well i hope your problem is solved and that the parents did get involved that would for sure in this day and age be a huge shocker. but anyhow a prickly cactus good idea i am not as nice i woulod have planted poison ivy or something like that. i think that would have made sure they wouldn't come back well at least not until it cleared up anyways. good luck. how do you post a picture anyways??? i have tons and would like to share but when i put ad pic. it asked for a url and my pics. i don't believe have one.

It's too dry here to make poison ivy grow LOL!! I haven't seen that is so many years I can't even remember what it looks like!

Jason I know there is more than one way to post a photo here but I have figured out only one way to actually do it & that's to create a photo album in the Kingsnake photo library. Paste in this URL:
http://gallery.pethobbyist.com/index.php?cat=500
then register your name & follow the instructions they have.
I am not computer whizzy yet I managed to do this by myself withOUT my computer geek husband helping me.. so if I can do it, anyone can! lol
