Yes, I know what you mean Parley. I have been actually very "patient" and doing that for seven years now. The problem is there is a fine line where trying to do it in a more
reasonable way is often not enough to get people to pay attention and it ends up causing more damage. The truth is that people do not know how to "listen" and they are so self
involved that they do things for "themselves" and fail to recognize the damage it causes to others around them.

This situation with the neighbor I tried to address "nicely" many times. The reality was that they never cared enough or respect enough to "listen". I even did my best to show
them respect to provide an example by dressing up my ponies so nicely to help them when they finally opened their Christmas tree farm, they just did not get it and I ended up with their negligence resulting in more damage than I ever imagined facing. It did not even work in showing them how nice my ponies were, they were impressed, but not enough to actually respect.

Gotta go get hay will elaborate later.
