If they were caring neighbors as the want to claim to be. They would have been helpful to him and the kids. Weather or not he had the tools to do his yard.
You're nicer than me! The conversation with that nosey neighbor would've gone a lot different had it been me. If he's so concerned about somebody taking advantage of the women in that house by cutting their yard at a cost, he should be a helpful nosey neighbor and cut it for them for free, while he's out there policing you! He knows they don't have a mower. But noooo, that's too much like right.
