Some people want a yard that's nice for kids to play in, not a jungle full of pests & biting insects. There is a place for modern lawns.
Yea, the land beyond my property line is an untamable jungle, I'm down with supporting the ecosystem and all but I'll put anything on the lawn that doesn't poison the dogs at this point.
I can’t imagine a more un stimulating garden for kids than the one shown. What of ladybirds, butterflies, treehouses, dens ? Why don’t you just Astro Turf it and completely eradicate nature & be done with it.
It's entirely possible to have a lawn that's good for soccer and running around barefoot & still have garden beds for flowers & food, & a shady corner with fruit trees or pecan trees & a tree house or whatever. It's not some sort of evil to want a nice comfortable tick free lawn.
