She's angry that none of them offered to pay for the first one and doesn't see how they think they have the right to say what part of the fence or posts get taken away.
I'm struggling to see what the problem is. If the post is an original boundary post (often concrete) it is best to leave them in place, then there is no arguement on where the boundary should be as the wooden fences come and go. Presumably now there is a fence panel shielding this post from your mother's side now, so it's out of sight for her. However, if the post is your side of the panel, then your mother's fence is her neighbours side of the boundary and you had better hope they don't take issue with it!
