Taking interest in my life and interfering in my life are two radically different things.
Remember the fist that can swing only until it reaches my nose.... As long as I'm standing on my own two feet, i don't want anybody punching my nose. But when I fall and cannot get up on my own, I sure hope somebody will be kind enough to extend his arm to pull me up and not let me die down in the dirt.
So nosey neighbor is not a good example because that's just...well, a nosey neighbor.
