re did you provide a fence to keep children from encroaching on the neighbors?

am I reading this correctly?

children encroaching?

I’d like to see fewer or lower fences in our communities, so we can interact more easily and actively with our neighbors

one of the things I would have changed in my past house of 7 yrs, if I’d been the owner and had that choice, would have been a lower fence, or see through fence, just high enough to keep their basset hound next door out of my yard, so I could see the children at play next door, and invite them into my yard; my entire back yard, which was huge, had 5 ft fence; the privacy was nice at times, but also shut me off from my neighbors

I’m a child of the 50’s, so really miss the days of more open neighborhoods; the low picket fence in my front yard there was wonderful

fences to keep dogs from encroaching on neighbors may be more appropriate, but children????

I got really annoyed at picking of dog poop every week before mowing my parking strip

pretty sure all that poop was from doggies, not from children
