How can I politely ask my neighbor to talk to her son about harassing my dogs?

I'm on a good basis with most of the neighbors closest to my house, it's just a 1 way street.

My neighbors that live down one, and across the street have 2 kids. One is a daughter about 9 years old, and a 5 or 6 year old son. They ride their bikes up and down the street a lot, and even though it some times upsets my dogs (and the neighbor's dogs right next to me), no one complains, because none of us are total jerks.

However, lately the son has been riding up on the grass that is right up next to my fence. I have no doubt that he is doing it to rowdy up my dogs and make them upset. Because I don't want to listen to them bark their brains out, I end up having to bring them in.

Is there a proper way to address this issue? Should I talk to his parents about it, or should I just talk to the kid?
(I know some people will say I should just train my dogs not to bark, but I believe that since they are inside a secure fence, they have just as much a right to bark as kids do to make noise in their yards.) But they don't deserve to be egged on to bark because this kid is bored (or for whatever reason).

Answer
I don't think you should say anything to the boy, just to his parents. At 5/6 yrs old, he's still a little young to realize what he is doing so even though he is doing it on purpose, I don't think it's to be mean. He thinks he is just playing with them. The reason I think it should be addressed immediately with his parents is because if he gets too close to your dogs, they might bite him. I'm sure they are not vicious dogs and you probably have them trained but they are still animals and if they view him as an intruder, they will protect their turf. If they bite him, his parents might decide to sue you even though you did nothing wrong.

Does anyone know what the motorcycle laws are in Kentucky?

Is a 9 year old allowed to be a passenger on a motorcycle on the highway? I tried looking the answer up and I can't find it. If you look the answer up and find it, please let me know where you found it at. I need to copy it so I can give it to my nephew's mother to prove to her that the kid shouldn't be on the back of a bike. Thanks!

Answer
there is no age restriction on a passengers age to ride in kentucky

it really depends on the maturity level of the child and of the driver... i have had my daughters on my bike with me sence they were 6 and 9 (they are twins by the way) i based when they could ride on how well they listened to my instructions for how to act on the bike and what they could and could not do.

though when i do have any passenger, i find i watch for blue hair trolls that cant see over the stearing wheel, sccocer moms in there suvs applyin makeup/eating/drinking/talking on the cell phone/ and turning around to yell at all the kids in their suv, first year drivers... etc etc... more so and people wonder why bikers have loud pipes and extra bright head lights

my source to answer your question is from the AMA website which servies most of the bikers here in the US and fights for our rights at the state and federal level while providing info for us
