Helping out your neighbor is usually a no-brainer, but sometimes things can get a little out of hand. One woman found herself in a sticky situation when her neighbor made a rather outrageous demand and then proceeded to throw a fit when she couldn’t comply.
It all started when the woman installed some outdoor cameras for extra security. Her nosy neighbor took notice and asked her to adjust the camera angles to include his house in the view. When she refused and suggested he get his own cameras, he threatened to report her to the Homeowner Association (HOA).
After reaching out to the HOA herself, the woman was relieved to find out she hadn’t broken any rules. And it seems like the entitled neighbor’s tantrum backfired, as he decided to pull out of the neighborhood watch because he felt like neighbors weren’t looking out for each other.
Commenters on the post had the woman’s back, pointing out that giving her neighbor access to her camera footage would be a major invasion of privacy. They suggested he get his own security system instead of expecting a free ride.
In the end, it looks like this neighborly drama has come to an end, but it serves as a reminder that boundaries are important – even when it comes to helping out those next door.
