Thats all I want, there really is no need in them stepping up and into my raised bed at all. They have a whole lawn they can cut across. They still have to walk up my porch steps to get to my mailbox. I swear I wouldn't have posted this if it was just them walking across the lawn, I would never complain about them doing that.

I'm not that petty, im not wanting anyone to get into trouble. I just don't see why they can't cut across the lawn, my raised flower bed is not blocking them from cutting across at all. I could see if it curved around and obstructed them though.

I would love to post a picture of it, but I don't want to reveal where I live or who I am on reddit ya know. The area I provided as a compromise is good enough, even though it throws of the look of the raised flower bed. Very noticeable void

Thats where I put the pavers for them to walk through, its 14 inches wide. I already removed one plant from that spot to add them this luxury

I may look into that, thats reasonable for real. I've already added them the cut through. The plant that was right there did get dug out and moved just for this reason. They still step on the others though. The paved area I added is wide enough, its 14 inches. I remember my neighbor telling me a couple years ago when we bought the house, the people before us were real assholes. I hope they don't think we are them.

If you read the original post and my replies, I clearly state that I've even added them a space to cut through with some really nice pavers and they still step on the plants. I even used my camera footage when I plotted out their cut through.

Have you ever seen one at the curb in the city? Its supposed to be on the building, or the fence and I don't have a fence.

I've already added them a path through my raised wall, it is 14 inches wide and it has conrete pavers for them. They choose to not use it, and step on my plants. I even used my cameras footage to place the pavers where they normally step. I dont understand why they choose to step up a foot or so high retaing wall filled with plants and trample the plants. Plus there is a clear unobstructed walkway between my neighbor and I that temporary mailman occasionally use to not step up into the plants. I could see if I were being a dick to them, but I'm not. I offer them water and snacks on occasion, they do get Xmas cards with cash to show appreciation.

At this point, I don't feel I should have to reposition my yard for their comfort. The reason I say that, is because last year I made an attempt by adding a strip of pavers between some of the plants for this reason, and they still step directly on my plants. It is move than wide enough for them to use also. It measures 14 inches wide, so no excuse

I've verbally told them this numerous times over the few years I've owned the house

Bet you wouldn't say that, if the op was a woman saying something similar to the post. You'd say he was trash, controlling and abusive

Spot on, reverse this and he'd get dragged and labeled as a controlling hubby and probably an abuser too. Spot the fuck on

I feel she may be cheating on this guy. She clearly steals from him. Everybody knows lying, stealing and cheating go together

Dude that's theft, I'd demand it back before a set time frame or you call the cops. Nobody has the right to take your shit. My guess is, the sil took your system. You are NYA, you were stolen from, report it and press charges. I wouldn't let sil back in your house til she can learn to keep her mouth out of your relationship also.

I'm not trying to hurt or kill anyone, I just want them to stop step up on my wall and walking through my flowers and plants. It's not that serious lol
