Is it wrong to......

[telboy]

The kids have a bit of a fad around our neighbourhood at the mo', of using peoples gardens as a 'short cut' and whilst they cross your garden, kick a few things in as they go.

What I want to know is, would you consider it wrong to carefully place a couple of kids buckets full of water behind the shed?
They have to run round the shed to get through the gate to get off the garden.
So now, if they run round the shed they're gonna fall over the buckets, as you can't see them until the lat split second. Oh and I also cable tied the gate shut so now they've got to climb over it.

..no longer the 'quick route'

Is this wrong?

I don't think so.
