My Neighbor Refused to Carpool My Daughter Claiming She Had No Space in the Car — So I Taught Her a Harsh Lesson

When Lena agreed to help her neighbor Karen by driving their daughters to school, she thought it was a one-time favor. But as Karen’s requests became daily, Lena felt increasingly used. When Karen lied to avoid returning the favor, Lena decided to teach her a lesson.

Lena, previously averse to drama, saw her peaceful routine disrupted when Karen knocked on her door early one morning. Karen, with her insincere smile, asked if Lena could take Emily to school since she had an early meeting. Lena, willing to help, agreed.

However, the “one-time” favor turned into a daily expectation. Karen’s constant requests started feeling like an obligation. One hectic morning, as Lena struggled with her own chaos, Karen’s text asking for another favor was the last straw. Lena, fed up, responded with a request for Karen to return the favor.

Karen’s excuse that her SUV was too full was clearly a lie. Realizing she’d been taken advantage of, Lena decided to make a point. She delayed dropping off the girls by making a detour to a donut shop, arriving late at school. When confronted by an angry Karen, Lena calmly suggested she handle the school run herself. Karen, embarrassed, stopped asking for favors, and Lena learned a valuable lesson: being a good neighbor doesn’t mean being a doormat.
