We had a young patron (who is in here everyday with his 3 older sisters) ask about the bears in the display case. I explained to him what the bears were and he wanted to take one to dress. I told him he needed to be an adult to take a bear home. He asked if his sister could take one. The sister that was with him was clearly not old enough. I told him he would need his mom to come in to take a bear home to dress. (The oldest sister has a hefty fine on her card which I did not mention to him.) I stressed clearly to him that his mom would need to be the one to come in with him to take a bear home. MH 10-11-08
