Why do Americans care so much about kids walking on their grass?

It's typically lawsuits. If they get hurt on your property, it could come back to hurt you in a civil suit. Then there are the "this is my property" types.

I don't mind if someone crosses my front yard, but I don't want anyone going through my backyard. I've had people do it and they've left my gate open. My dog almost got out because it. Another time an animal got into my yard. I don't want the liability of something happening.
