Some parents are really hard to believe. And we wonder what's wrong with so many kids these days? If they live with these morons for parents, how else will they turn out?

Donna, you showed remarkable restraint in holding back from punching someone. I'm not so sure I could have held my cool so well.

I get this all the time at my job. Parents bring their kids to the library for entertainment. Entertainment, aka; expecting library staff to babysit for them. Witnessing the ignorance of some people never ceases to amaze me. The kids are out of control, while the parents completely ignore them and usually condone their bad behavior. Don't let us do or say anything to better the situation or a quick reprimand is sure to come. We usually end up calling the security guard to remove them from the building.

I'm glad you love your job and I hope you don't have any more experiences like that
