I did the whole 'I will tell your parents' threat and 'you will be in BIG trouble'

also I said dont practice your athletics day in the library its not a racecourse.

My new problem is how to stop them from sliding or hanging off the banister. This new library has stairs.

over wax or greese. lol

put up a sign, the banister may not hold your weight and we do not want you to get hurt because we care.
 
yep

I know one school installed one for the teachers. I also have a lift in my library but it can only take 8 people at one time. Its an airless stainless steel box. The school is 3 storeys high. Why they cant make it a glass elevator like the one Charlie had in the chocolate factory I dont know.

I try to dissuade the children from climbing through the windows. In one library book story about a book fair they did just that to get the book they wanted.

The principal seems to be against beanbags for some strange reason.

Im like the more beanbags the better.
 
Maybe he came from the school of hard knocks.

Im like I need my padded walls. If no padded walls, then curtains or maybe a lego wall.
 
I saw some schools in Northern Ireland had barbed wire around them.

Im like we use barbed wire and electric fences to keep sheep from straying in nz.

Schools are basically kiddy farms really. The other day we had athletics day so the entire school walked over to the althletics stadium across the road where they have a proper race track. I was hoping there would be more incentives for children to run around than simply coming first and. a medal or certificate. Maybe have something to chase after or a tiger chasing them. round the race track.
 
I guess it depends , on the age of the kids , on what u mean by indoors ( in the house ) , the size of the house , if there's any safe outside space , if it's a dangerous ' indoors ' for them to b running around in , but mostly it's about discipline .
If u have started to train your kids from a young age , to do as u say , then it shouldn't b a problem . If u haven't been training them then that's the problem , not the kids.
 
? This was in a school library, which I was working in for about 3 and a half years
I was not a teacher, I was their librarian

The problem was definitely with the teachers. They had them nearly all day, I only had them for 1 period a week per class and at lunchtimes.
When the teachers were not there with them, and it was lunchtime (i.e playtime) they were free to run around outside, and thought they could run into the library.
 
Even the doors wouldn't stop them, and if I was not there, and I had locked the door, they'd be banging on it and crowding around the door until I came and opened it, and then they would race into the library, wanting the best twirly chairs.
