Having a good relationship with your neighbour can make life so much easier, as you know they're someone you can always rely on.

But what would you do if your neighbour's child was stealing from you, and causing a scene every time they entered your home? One woman had reached the end of her tether with her next-door neighbour's daughter as she'd come into their home and "disrupt everything [...]climbing on furniture and damaging things".

She then explained what the "compulsive liar and a nasty little girl" had done to upset her son, and she was considering banning the kid from her house.

The fuming mum took to Mumsnet to explain: "I came back off holiday on Friday and brought my son a huge tub of his favourite chocolate from duty-free. He has been saving them and only having a handful each time."

Her neighbour's daughter came round to play with her son, and he showed her what his mum had bought her. "As soon as he left the room to go outside and play she ate the whole tub!!!! Baring in mind this is a huge tub of chocolate", she raged.

The original poster's son was so "angry", he told his mum he wanted his neighbour's daughter to leave. "She promised to replace them but hasn't. They don't have much money so I don't expect it", she shared.

The mum ended the post by writing: "She keeps calling round every day and I have been saying no as my son doesn't want her here. It's getting to the point where it's embarrassing sending her back home 2-3 times a day.

"How can I word this nicely to her mum that I don't want her coming round? She's a compulsive liar and a nasty little girl. (As horrible as it sounds)."

In the comments, people were mad on her behalf. One wrote: "Turn her away every time, stop letting her into your home. With all the respect in the world, you were a fool for letting her in on Saturday when you've had such a bad time of it with her in the past. You need to consistently say no, not occasionally give in when she pesters enough, that'll just make her think pestering is the way in."

Another penned: "Can you stop answering the door, send mum a message and say that as your son is upset with her daughter you don’t think it’s appropriate for her to keep knocking on your house for him and just leave it at that."

Someone else wrote: "Tell her mum it has to stop could you have a word with her and tell her to stop coming to mine as it's taking the p***."
