It strikes me as mad that you have to be 14 to use the library unattended, but there you have it.

If the kids got out of line, I suppose the parents would hear about that rather quickly as well. I can see the logic of it in a larger city, though as far as I know the Omaha museums have no such rules. OK, Omaha isn't really much of a "city", but still. <br /><br />I had to giggle at the image of a security guard at our little library where it is essentially run by one elderly woman who closes it for two hours midday to go home for lunch. Sometimes I feel like I live in another country.that has positives and negatives, I guess.Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-77736362304010580852012-03-14T18:45:41.512-07:002012-03-14T18:45:41.512-07:00This is just a guess but I'm wondering if this...This is just a guess but I'm wondering if this rule is to discourage parents from dumping their kids off while they head off to the grocery store. There are parents out there who will exploit any form of free baby sitting. We actually have a local library that now has a security guard on duty because of the unruly, dumped off kids. It's a nice neighborhood but, some parents just don't parent.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03962490721295362487noreply@blogger.com
