Neighbor ignores homeowners trying to discuss replacing their shared fence, but later complains about the posts after they pay 90% of the cost: ‘It was our decision to replace it’

Apparently, a free and new fence wasn't good enough for these entitled neighbors…Neighbors… what a complicated subject. They could be the best people you could ever meet and trust them with everything you have… or they could be the worst and actually make the experience you have in a neighborhood or at home very complicated. In my personal experience, I've never had issues with the people who lived next door, and that is taking into account that I moved a lot growing up. So, when I encounter stories like this, they really surprise me by how mean and entitled people can be.Something that sparks dilemmas with neighbors is a shared fence. We know that it is an object that belongs to both families, although one takes care of it more than the other. In the story we have below, the homeowners wanted to change the fence because it was falling apart. It was moldy, unpleasant to look at, and not safe at all. Of course, they went up to their neighbors and discussed the problem. They weren't as worried about the situation, so in the end, the homeowners paid for almost the whole replacement, about 90% of it.And they made a good replacement: now it had a metal post, so it was going to last far…
