Sure. One example is when a neighbor stops maintaining their yard. Without an HOA to require them to mow the lawn, trim bushes, etc., the yard becomes overgrown.

Sure. A common one is students not doing their homework at all. Despite repeated reminders and warnings, they just don't bother. It can be really annoying for teachers as they plan their lessons based on the assumption that students will do the preparatory work.
One of the main ethical issues is the lack of consent. If a person is sent as payment without their full and free consent, it is a form of exploitation. Even if they seem to consent under duress, it's not a valid form of agreement. For example, if a woman is sent to work off a debt against her will, it's unjust. Also, it can lead to situations of abuse, whether physical or emotional, as the person in the position of 'payment' may be vulnerable.
