    i would tell them in a nice way... "look lads, if you divn't mind not walkin on wur grass, like. cause it's upsetting the missus, and she's worried about the little lad like." (do you like my lenny impression?!) You've a good way with folks lenny, i know you could probably spark up a friendly banter conversation with them, get them onside as opposed to at loggerheads over an ickle bit of grass....

    Or tell them you've just laid new grass seed and you want it to have a chance..... banter as above!

    Or dig it up so it's only mud... people in kappa trainers will not walk across mud...........

    Or get a fence, in which case the little man can get out to play safely.... and noone would think anything of it....
    Well said that woman. Think I may try it
