another fine example of it is easier to say "I am sorry" than to ask permission.
Especially when someone may be harmed. (NOT that I am suggesting you break the law) ....

We called the Home Owner Association to ask if we could the tree down and they said no because it makes the value of the house higher than the neighboring houses (stupid, I know) so we moved to a new subdivision that was building up. Lets just hope we don't have the same problem again because we would have to go through HOA again.

I'm really glad that your little babies are okay. If you can remove the tree without 'asking for permission' then I would do it for the safety of my babies and you get the other half of your yard back.
