lovely! some families can’t afford to pay the fees and frankly, the library is where EVERY child should go, often!

And some ppl should instill personal responsibility in their children
-
Idk I checked out 7+ books/wk from the lib from ages 10 to 14 I was bound to lose 1 or 2. I was a child, still learning abt responsibility

-
Same here, absolutely love books, and when I inevitably forgot to turn them in, my parents had me do extra chores to pay for them, hence the teaching children personal responsibility
-
Ok, & for the families that cant afford those fees, having the kids do chores isn't going to help. Libraries aren't meant to be a privilege
-
Actually they are, your library card is a fucking privilege, if you abuse said privilege there is usually a consequence, hence the fee.
-
I disagree. I believe libs should not be only for those that can afford it. I want libs that enrich our communities, especially young minds
-
Even if those minds are still learning abt responsibility. Even if their parents can't afford the fee. Which many families can't do.

Do they really need a grant to keep from squeezing kids for cash?
