This anti lawn tirade is kinda anti-kid to a degree.
I see where you’re coming from, but I’d argue that more public parks with playgrounds and fields to play on is better than lawns. In some places that’s not prioritised, possibly where you are, and so it sounds great what you have going on!
But if there are enough public parks for kids to play at, then lawns just end up being wasted space that could instead be a garden or have native plants that help the native wildlife, or something like that.
I don’t know anyone that actually uses their lawn for anything… Some people might host BBQs or stuff like that, in which case I don’t mind. In my view, if it gets used, great! But most of the time they don’t and they just suck up water resources and petrol on mowing with no real benefit
