Beware of the Miles!!!

Holy Cr@p!!

And I do mean that literally! Keep reading and you will probably say the same thing. I come home from DDs softball practice, pull in the driveway and out jump all my kids to play for the next hour with all the other kids in the front yards....we let our kids go two house down on either side of us and the same for across the street.....as long as they stay in the front yards. So, one of the neighbor kids comes running screaming in my house. I think, "Dear Lord, which one of my kids did something to this child". But NO, this child starts telling me that a five year old neighbor kid, we'll call him Miles, had just pooped in our yard! Holy Cr@p! We have these huge bushes and trees on the sides of our house and the kids use it as their fort.....it does not have a toliet, mind you!

So what would you do? Seriously as nice as this neighborhood is I am going crazy. This child took a dump in my yard....his house is four houses down. Do I tell the parents? Would you want to know. I think any other parent I could talk to but, these are the same ppl who didn't know their child had been at my house for like 4 hours the first day they were moving in to their new house.(he was 3 1/2 then) I thought he was just visiting with one of the other kids and they came to our house!!

Sorry to rant but between the dogs next door and the Phantom Cr@pper I am at a loss!!

Sometimes kids don't have time to get to the proper spot to take a dump.I remember us kids when we were young ,we were so busy playing that we would ignore the urge to go till the very last second.There were a few times we dumped behind each others trees,lol.

I know that it's not funny to you, but I HAVE to laugh! My neighbor's little boy did the same thing to me. My DD had a blow up pool in the side yard and my neighbor's DS came over. (He was only 2 at the time.) I was sitting in the pool playing with them and he crawls out of the pool. He bent over by the side of the pool and I thought that he was playing with the mud on the side of the pool (since we had been splashing). He turns bright red and bends over again. I go over to the side of the pool to say "boo!" and up he pops RIGHT IN MY FACE with a handful of poop! He was giggling up a storm! Evidently the first time he bent over he was pulling off his trunks! My DD ran to the porch yelling, "Nathan POOPED!" I got out of the pool, picked him up from behind, and brought him back to his mother. I literally handed him over and said, "And his trunks are right next to the pool. You'll be able to smell them!" She was SO embarassed and ran right over to clean it up!

JMTCW, but you should tell the mom. Cause odds are that yours was not the first lawn that this child has chosen to bless. And if nobody ever tells his parents, he may do it someplace much more public and much more embarassing to the parents. If my DD was doing that, I would want to know. Like I said, JMTCW.

That's a good one to tell him about when he's in high school and embarrass him!

My neighbor's son peed on another neighbor kids head, so see it could have been worse!

You could scoop it and have him bring it home!

Yup, I would knock on their door, with a bag in hand. I'd say "I'm sure you aren't aware of this, but little Miles pooped in my yard yesterday." Then I'd make sure I pointed out the spot so they could clean it up.

OMG!! The poor kid. Why is he out alone at 3 1/2?

I dont' think I'd tell the parents, I would just feel too awkward...."um, hi, Miles left a brown trout on my yard, and, um, I don't have a pond!!!" Just get the hose out and wash it away. Wouldn't want THIS to happen:

This reminds me an incident that happened in my youth living with my mom and dad.Our next door neighbors were always allowing their dog to do do in my our yard,and ofcoarse this stirred up a few arguements between the 2 yards.At one point the families stopped talking ,altogether.My dad eventually built a fence but that didn't work either.Anyway, one day when my parents went bowling,and my brother was babysitting me,I tried to whip us up some of my moms famous homemade fudge.So, anyway the fudge didn't turn out,and we did not know what to do with it.Couldn't flush it down the toilet it might clog the drains,couldn't risk it getting seen in the trash ,so I took one of my dads old friut of the loom underwear that my mom had in the rag bin,and stuffed the big mess of fudge in there and had my brother run over and sneak the underwear over to our dog neighbors porch.We peaked out the window for hours waiting for the neighbor to come home and when they did,and discovered it, it was the most hillarious moment of my life.The puzzled look on their faces,LOL !!!! I'll never forget it !

I have no idea why he is out by himself I don't know the parents well at all b/c they are the only ones who don't really hang out in the driveways.
I almost ran him over last night, I took DH his dinner last night(he works 8p to 5a) he forgot his dinner so after I got the kids all bathed and in PJs we went to the P.D. to drop it off. We were back at home at 8:55 p.m. and there is Miles in the middle of the road on his big wheels. He ran down when he saw us and wanted to know if the girls could play!!

At least it was a child who did it and not an adult, honest to god some of the poor excuses for adult human beings living in this complex will take a dump in the middle of the street. Which my DH maintains and he has the unpleasant task of cleaning it up along with their broken beer bottles, beer cans and other paraphenalia used to prevent pregnancy.

I would let the parents know like Holly said and ask them to clean it up .

I worry about a child that young out alone, I know in our state their are actual laws that tell when kids be left outside alone of home alone etc.

I am not sure that I would ask the parents to clean it up (do you want to wait to have catch them coming or going?), so I would take care of that part myself. However, I definitely tell the parents so they can deal with it. I would not tell them in an angry or accusatory manner, but just say you would want to know if it were your child in case there was a possible medical problem they might want to watch for (a nice way to let them know without them having to be embarrassed to death).

You could always put up a sign in the yard, like someone did in the neighborhood where I work:
"Don't let your dog crap in my yard, and I won't crap in yours." In your case, you could change "dog" to "kid."
