It's Saturday morning 10:30, I just stepped into the children's area and let two of my older children went to hang up they own jackets and allowed them to look for books in the children's section While I was trying to carry my heavy backpack and my 1 1/2 year old daughter at the same time, and trying to take off her jacket, a lady caught me unprepared and said my daughter can't cry like that , or we will have to leave. I think that's really inconsiderate and rude, since I just got here and I have no intention to break any rules in the library. As I was trying to calm my baby down. This lady talked to another lady at the children's section and they both looked at me from time to time ( it s pretty annoying personally). Then the lady at the children's section kept staring at me. So I asked if I can help her with anything. She repeated the same thing that the previous lady said, which I also considered pretty rude: so the two adults think that me, also as a adult don't have the ability to discipline my children. She also displayed more disrespectful behavior towards me later, which made me think enough is enough. I finally decided I just have to leave this place, because these two ladies that worked at the library don't seem to have respect to parents with children/ they don't have children themselves. I really would like to see some improvements about this issue because we visit this library quite often and never ever have been treated like this. I wonder if those two ladies need to have more experience in working with parents and children so that they don't act and speak in ways that upsets parents.

Updates: Sep 7, 2021 I just noticed a reply from this library today. I don't have any comment since we stopped visiting this library after this incident. We live closer to a different library - that's part of the reason why we don't visit the Ridgedale Library. But I do hope that the service is better now.
