I remember growing up in a neighborhood where everybody knew each other and kids used to run wild through neighbors’ yards without a second thought.

It seems like those days are long gone, but the woman who wrote this story on Reddit seems like she tries her best to keep the spirit of friendliness alive…except for one kid she doesn’t trust.

Is she wrong for what she’s doing?

Read her story below and see what you think.

AITA for not giving my neighbor’s youngest daughter my garage code?

“My (82F) neighbor (44f) has 4 kids. 3 girls and a boy. There’s Amelia and Emma (17f) Henry (15m) and Erica (14f).

She’s close with them.

They moved here just before Erica was born and I used to help their mom with the twins while she took care of the babies.

Both my sons are childfree and I consider these kids my grandkids. Amelia, Emma, and Henry are amazing kids.

Except…

They come over to help with chores, cook with me, and are very well behaved.

Erica, however, is a nightmare. Even her mom admits to not being able to control her.

She and I were never close and she used to only come to my house when I’d invite the family over for dinner.

Then I got my dog, Bentley. Erica fell in love with him and would ask to come see him every day.

I allowed her to come when I was home for a while but she started ignoring my instructions with him so I started making excuses as to why she couldn’t come over.

Henry and the twins were still here for hours every day.

Even her siblings know…

When the twins turned 13 I gave them the code to my garage so they could come over whenever they wanted. I gave Henry the code when he was around 12.

All of the kids kept it a secret from Erica because they viewed my house as an escape from her.

Erica saw Henry use the code yesterday and asked me to give her the code so she can play with Bentley.

Hell no!

I told her I don’t want her to come over without her dad (the only person who can control her) because of her behavior.

According to the twins, she’s been throwing tantrums non stop since.

Their mom is asking me to give her the code or a house key to get her to calm down and was very upset when I said no so I wanted to see if I was the *******.”

Take a look at what Reddit users had to say.

Another Reddit user chimed in.

This individual didn’t hold back.

Another person had a lot to say.

And this Reddit user spoke up.

She can’t trust that kid as far as she can throw her…

No code for you!
