my neighbour whom I don't get on too well with came around to say that one of my teenagers had been up to no good. She said this time she would not call the police (although she was well within her rights I must say) but that she thought that I should be informed. Although she was being kind and honest with me and offered me her help at anytime on this problem I now feel angry because I am now indebted to her even though it is by way of my child. do you think my feelings are atall justified?

If you set a side whatever that caused that rift between you two then I think you will notice she has changed. In my view, she has eradicated that grudge she had about you and she has rolled the ball towards you. She is watching. Your first reaction towards her would determine the future between you two. But I hope things are not that bad.
As for your feelings, its natural that you might feel you won't need anything from someone, but life is so tempting and no one is perfect. We all make mistakes...but a mistake is never a mistake because most mistakes result into a new invention. The trick she used on you can be reversed...and that is how friendship is built.

Hi gnomeland..
Your entitled to feel the way you do *as there are reaons as to why you dislike your neighbour* however the fact that yoyr child has done wrong, is more than good reason for you to be civil *at least*.. I mean Its not under the greatest of circumstances to become 'civil' but you do have to think that if your child were to have done this to someone else- how would you react?..
