Neither A Borrower Nor A Lender Be

My next-door neighbor and I frequently borrow things from each other.
Not long ago, when I requested his ladder, he told me he had lent it to his son.
Recalling a saying my Grandmother used to repeat, I recited, " You should never lend anything to your kids, because you will never get it back."
With that, he responded, "Well ... it's not even my ladder, it's my dad's."
