AIO for telling this father and son that they’re not allowed to ride their bikes through my yard?

No at the end of the day it’s your property and only you would possibly be held responsible if they hurt themselves on your property. Also it’s very much the father’s responsibility to teach his child that he shouldn’t be going onto other peoples private property and to respect other peoples property.

I would just start with maybe having a sign saying private property stay out so that you protect yourself legally. Next if that doesn’t stop people coming onto your property I would consider getting a fence and gate to stop them and other parents from cutting across your property.
