[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a snow plow. We plow everyone’s driveways. Neighbors were always so thankful but over the years, it has now become expected that my husband does the plowing and unless the homeowner is outside, not so much as a thank you text. The final straw was a text from a neighbor down the street asking when we’re going to get to his house because he was planning on heading out. I would love a friendly neighborhood but people have became such selfish a holes it’s getting harder and harder to be generous. Separately over the summer we had heavy winds. I was working from home. My desk is by the front window and I saw my recycle bin blow into the street. I was on a call so couldn’t deal with it at that moment. My neighbor came out, moved his bins and ignored mine. [/quote] This. You do something nice and it is definitely appreciated – but also teaches people to start to expect and become dependent. It’s human nature. OP’s neighbors have undoubtedly been coddled and cared for by their parents for years and are now struggling with the realities of being actual adults. This thread isn’t really about being neighborly, it’s about younger generations needing to learn to grow up and finally become self sufficient and independent contributors to the world. [/quote] No, it’s about the boomers being selfish, judgmental cows. [/quote]
