    Font - EM breaks into my backyard to use my swimming pool CONCLUDED Originally posted by u/Brightside256 in r/entitledparents on EM breaks into my backyard to use my swimming pool! Background: I just recently had a new family move into my neighborhood. The neighborhood is relatively small and close knit. The kind of neighborhood where everyone knows each other and we generally all get along well. We have big block parties and shoot off fireworks together on holidays. The new family is a middle-a

    Font - EM- Crazy Mother EK - Entitled Kids K1- One of her kids around 14 years old Me- The one and only me I was hanging out in the living room just relaxing and watching tv. From the couch I have a clear view into my backyard. That's when I notice the retractable cover of my swimming pool begin to roll up. I was home alone and no one else that has access to my backyard. For insurance reason I have a lock on my back gate because of the pool. The gate always remains locked as we would be liable i

    Font - I rush outside and see what was going on. That's when I see EM standing next to my pool with her four children. They are dressed in their swimsuits and EM is rolling up the cover of my pool. Me- Excuse me what do you think you're doing in my backyard? EM- My kids have been well behaved today and they want to go for a swim. I saw that you have a pool so we are going for a dip. Me- This is not a public pool EM and you are on my private property. I need you to get out of my backyard now. I n

    Font - EM- WHO THE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? IT IS A VERY HOT DAY AND MY KIDS WANT TO GO FOR A SWIM AND THEY WILL. Me-Not in my private pool they will not. How did you even get in my yard anyway? The gate is locked. OFF! IN MY OLD NEIGHBORHOOD WE DID THIS ALL THE TIME. MY KIDS ARE GOING FOR A SWIM NOW AND YOU WILL NOT EVEN KNOW WE ARE HERE. YOU ARE JUST BEING SELFISH AND I WILL NOT ALLOW MY BABIES TO SUFFER BECAUSE OF YOUR BAD MOOD. EM-

    Font - Me (Now angry) - I will not ask again EM. You either get the off my property now or I will call the police. You are not using my pool and that is final. EM (finally gets the cover off)- Okay kids jump on in. Don't listen to this stupid b K1-Yeah you stupid b We are going for a swim now and you can't stop us. Me- THAT IT! I AM CALLING THE POLICE.
  • 07
    Font - EM now sees that I am serious and tries to the "reason" with me. EM- You would really not allow four kids to go for a swim on a hot day. What kind of heartless person are you? Just let us go swimming for an hour and we will leave. Don't you want to be a good neighbor to us? Me- No I do not. You just broke into my backyard without permission? Please get off my property now.

    Font - EM starts to mumble something to her kids and then she grabs her two youngest kids and starts to walk out of my yard. I then turn around and see her two oldest boys still standing by the pool. I start to walk over to tell them to go with EM and that's when I see what they are doing. Her two oldest spawns are PEEING into my pool. K1- MAYBE THAT WILL TEACH YOU TO BE A BETTER NEIGHBOR YOU STUPID B

    Font - Me (grabs the arms of the two oldest and pushes them out the gate)- GET THE OFF MY PROPERTY YOU DISGUSTING LITTLE SI EM- DON'T YOU DARE LAY A HAND ON MY BABIES OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE ON YOU. WHO DO YOU THINK THEY WILL BELIEVE? A GOOD MOMMY OR A PATHETIC LITTLE B LIKE YOU. YOU JUST GOT WHAT YOU DESERVE. ENJOY SWIMMING IN YOUR PISS POOL.

    Font - They than all walk off laughing as they went back to their house. I was complete shock and I didn't know what to do. I now wish I called the police after this first incident, but I sadly did not and things have since escalated with this family. Remember how I said that I had a lock on the gate? I later found it broken on the ground. I have no idea what they used to smash it, but they were successful. I have since purchased a much more heavy-duty lock.

    Font - Edit 1: Wow I cannot believe how much this has blown up. I didn't really expect this kind of response. I am going to post more about my experience with the EM as this has been a on going thing. I will also call the police to file a report. I think many of you are right about that one and it is better safe than sorry. I believe some of my other neighbours may have already called the police on EM as well.
  • 12
    Font - Edit 2: A lot of people keep asking why i didn't just call the police right away. I am not the best with confrontation and have a hard time handling stuff like this. When people yell at me I sometimes just shut down and panic. At the beginning of this incident I really thought that EM had the wrong backyard since she is new. A few of my other neighbours have pools as well and I thought maybe one of them had offered EM use of their pool. Many of my neighbours are very friendly and are the

    Font - After the altercation happened I was just to scared to call. I did lay hands on her kids and I was worried I would get into trouble for this. I did not think it would escalate the way it did. I didn't think anyone could be this crazy. Also yes this post is unfortunately real. I wish it was fake. It would have saved me a lot of time, money and tears.

    Font - Edit 3: A huge thanks to whoever sent me the platinum, the gold and the three silvers. That was truly amazing of you. You are all the best! I promise I am going to post again very soon. Work just has me extremely busy at the moment. I am hoping to post again in a few days.

    Font - First Update: Hi Everyone, Sorry for not updating in a while but I have been incredibly busy at work and was not able to find time to update. Here are few more things that EM has done to my family and my neighbors since the first incident.
  • 16
    Font - Event Two: I came home from shopping the next day and found out that EM went into my backyard a second time. I was out at the hardware store buying a new lock for the gate when this occurred. Before I had left to go shopping, I asked my elderly neighbor to keep an eye out for EM just in case.
  • 17
    Font - Here is what my neighbor told me happened. She said that EM and her kids were in my yard playing with my family's lawn games. We have several such as lawn darts, ladder ball, a fake axe throwing game, etc. She didn't know how long they had been in the yard but when she noticed them, she went onto her deck and told them to leave. After making a fuss again, they complied and left. Apparently a lot of swearing and a full blown tantrum was involved.
  • 18
    Font - I went into the yard to investigate and see if anything had been taken. Nothing was taken but a most of the games had damage. A few darts were snapped, an axe was broken and my inflatable unicorn float for the pool was popped. I was livid at this point and I couldn't believe this happened again. I spoke to my parents about this incident and I wanted to call the police. My parents told me not to bother though that it was just cheap stuff and that I should let it go. They told me that the p

    Font - Event Three: The EKS went into another elderly neighbor's front garden and picked almost everyone of her flowers. She had a beautiful garden with roses and other expensive flowers in it. I was my neighbors' pride and joy. She had been working on that garden ever since I was a child. I was walking my dog when I found her crying in her garden as she cleaned up the mess. When she told me the story of what had happened it broke my heart. I asked her if she was going to call the police and she

    Font - EM defended her EKS actions by saying that it was her birthday and the EKS thought she deserved a beautiful present (wasn't that lovely of them?). She even proudly showed the bouquet off to the police officers. The police didn't do anything other than give her a verbal warning and file a report.
  • 21
    Font - Event Four: The neighborhood has a park only three houses down from EMs home. Instead of walking they're like a normal person she would load her kids up in the car and drives them over. There isn't a parking lot at this park and most people who drive their will park on the side of the road.
  • 22
    Font - Not EM, though she will run over the curb and park directly beside the children's playground equipment. She has done this numerous times regardless of if there are other people at the playground. She will just honk her horn at you and scream for you to move. I have a video and pictures of her doing this. For the purpose of keeping this anonymous I am not going to post them as our park has a unique setup. Some of the other neighborhood parents were obviously furious over her actions and sh
  • 23
    Font - They told her she could hit a child or animal by doing this. She just started saying we were racist and that we were harassing her. She then went and called the police on us. She was acting very smug by doing this and seemed genuinely proud of herself. She told the group that we were going to be sorry for the way we have treated her since she moved in. As soon as the police came, she began to cry and claim that we had all been harassing her for weeks. She made up a whole bunch of lies abo
  • 24
    Font - The police interviewed everyone who was present and it very clear that she was wrong in this situation. The police pulled her aside and talked to her. She was given a very hefty ticket for reckless driving and she was told that if this happened again, she would be charged. For once she was silent and just left with her kids. To my knowledge she has not done this again since. That is all is all I have time to tell you about right now and I better get back to work before my boss notices. I

    Font - Last Update: Hi Everyone, it's me again. Sorry it has been so long since I updated but I feel like you all deserve an update on my neighbor drama. The final event: This happened during my neighborhood's fireworks display. All the neighborhood families generally get together and have a huge fireworks night in the summer. A lot of money is spent on this and its not exactly a small show. We all look forward to this every year and everyone who goes will contribute some money or bring some fir

    Font - As soon as it gets dark all the families start to arrive and set up their lawn chairs, etc. I noticed that EM and her kids have arrived, even though no one invited them. I was just hoping there would not be any trouble but apparently, I am just not that lucky. As soon as the fireworks start, her youngest child starts to freak the heck out. The screams of this child were constant and almost as loud as the fireworks. The kid is young, so I am not surprised she was scared by the noise. EM do

    Font - Two of her other kids than start to run up on the field to where the fireworks are being lite. To help my brother and avoid anyone getting hurt, I get up and run to stop them from doing this. I brought them over to EM and told her to please control her children as it is dangerous to go on the field. EM completely ignores me and continues playing on her phone. The kids ran up on the field four more times throughout the night. I had to continue to get them off each time as EM did nothing. A

    Font - This had distracted me and everyone else so much that no one noticed what her oldest (14M) was doing. He had taken a few of the roman candles from the boxes and had snuck away with them. He managed to also get his hands on an extra lighter. He went to the opposite end of the park near the house and proceeded to lite three at the same time. By some miracle he didn't get hurt as he was smart enough to at least have them facing away from his body. When we notice everyone went running to try
  • 29
    Font - This time EM didn't ignore what was happening and she quickly grabbed all her children and ran back to her house. There was a great deal of confusion at this point and everyone was in a complete panic. Soon the fire was put out and everything started to settle down. The neighbors house and deck had some pretty nasty fire damage.
  • 30
    Font - The police questioned everyone at the site, and we all gave the same story about what had happened. Upon hearing this the police immediately went to talk to EM. When EM came out, she claimed that she and her family were never even there. She told the police that we were all liars and we were out to get her. This was quickly proven to be a lie as many of my neighbors had been taking photos and videos while at the park. In many of the photos you can clearly see EM and her kids. EM and her o
  • 31
    Font - I found out later that EM is being charged with child property damage and possession of illegal Her case has not come to trial, so I do not have all the details right now, but it turns out that EM is a heavy user. She was tested at the police station when they found her to be behaving oddly and it was discovered in her system. A warrant was obtained for her house and a lot of illegal were found. Now all her children are in the care of CPS and she is in prison awaiting trial.
  • 32
    Font - Well that's my story about my neighborhood EM. If I hear anything about the trial I will be sure to post an update. As for what happened to the oldest EK who set the house on fire: I really hope they can become better people too. I don't know about the oldest though the kid is pretty messed up. I'm shocked he didn't end up in a Juvenile detention centre for what he did with the fireworks.
