The other day I had a mother and her daughter come into the library. The daughter was looking to do some community service hours. Of course daughter had informed be that it had to be done like, YESTERDAY. I informed her that I would not be able to help her and referred to the closest charitable organization. They both wanted to know what the word charitable meant.
I mean come on.
Really?
