‘i Can't Handle The Guilt If Anything Happens’: Family Next Door Repeatedly Leaves Their Elderly Parent On A Neighbor's Porch Without Asking, Sparking The Neighbor's Worry That If She Ever Gets Hurt, They'll Be Liable

As our parents age, we can only hope that we have the means to support them in the next phase of their lives. If we don't, it's important to find a trusted individual or assisted living facility who can.

Or just a sad case of a family failing to show up for their loved one?

At its root, this is a familial issue. Now, it's spreading into the lives of those who live near the family, when it clearly shouldn't be. What are the next steps? Commenters are adamant about setting a strict boundary, putting up a fence, and even calling the authorities. What would you do in this situation? Scroll below to read the full story.
