[QUOTE="klmno, post: 309156, member: 3699"] I think that is a great idea- they have ways to make sure lactose intolerant kids don't drink milk, yet they doon't stop having it available to the other kids. And as far as books- it reminds me that sometimes there are other reasons a child shouldn't read something. I worked with a guy who had an adopted son who was a difficult child and had learning disabilities. They were trying to decipher if he had autism, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), or both. nyway, he was about 12-13 yo and would absolutely flip out and have bad nightmares for days if he ssaw anything pertaining to even a small fire. He could not watch that Disney movie that was animated several years ago- even though it was rated G because his parents knew the fire scene would trigger him. If we can go online and see what books the library owns and has available (that are not currently checked out), then there is a way where parents could go to their child's account and list the books that they don't want the chikld to check out and it would "refuse" it when the librarian swiped the card for the book. PS, Susie, I love the idea of putting the classics on the top shelf and declaring them Off-limits! [/QUOTE]
