    'No, Karen. My pool is not a community center': Entitled neighbor keeps trespassing into resident's backyard to use their pool without permission, believes it's her right

    The idea of swimming in the pool on a hot summer's day can apparently bring out the worst in people. Look, if I lived in the suburbs and my neighbor had a pool that I wanted to use occasionally, I would certainly go out of my way to befriend that neighbor. I would try to see if there was anything I could provide for them that might reciprocate my desire to swim in their pool. 

    Of course, most folks with pools that I have encountered are generous enough to extend the occasional invite. However, any decent person knows that they are not required to do so. It's within their own jurisdiction. Unfortunately, this author's next-door neighbor did not understand that concept. She also didn't seem to comprehend the concepts of boundaries and trespassing.

    When she tried to invade her neighbor's backyard so she could let her kids use their pool without permission, that was the final straw for the author. Keep scrolling below for the full low-down.
