[OPLINLIST] Juvenile Privilages and Parent Usage

[joe]

Good morning,

We do allow minor's to check out movies.  The only limit we have is that 
the parent or guardian must sign to allow them to check out films on the 
child's card.  From the stand point of parents using a child's card, we 
don't prohibit it.  Our across the board policy is that the card holder 
or the card must be present to checkout, so if you have your child or 
parents card, etc, we assume that you have that person's permission to 
use their card. 

Have a good day.

Joe
