Should children be banned from library?

espoir @espoir (184) • China 22 Aug 13

Recently a newly-opened library in a city of China carried out a rule banning children from entering the reading rooms as they are too noisy. Opened on early August, citizens and media soon reported that too many young children...

espoir Barring them from the library just make the library's job easier and certainly is not a reasonable solution for the matter. Public service like libraries should make decision based on the interests of all people. I expect the policy will be withdrawn soon.

My love-hate relationship with Odesk

ayeeesha @ayeeesha (1127) • Philippines 27 Mar 13

When I decided to look for ways to start working online, I read that Odesk is a good site that offers freelancers a lot of jobs. I applied but it took me months to get hired. During that time, I looked for other online...

ayeeesha Hi donatello123! If you don't mind me asking, what site are you referring to that is similar to Odesk? :) Well, getting a job in Odesk is really difficult. As you've mentioned, they do prefer experienced contractors. Not to boast or anything but I think I...

What I'll Do Now That MyLot is Changing and my Health May be Changing

Barbara Radisavlejvic @bagarad (14276) • Paso Robles, California 30 Apr 13

First, I'll also be copying anything I've written that I want to save, just in case MyLot disappears, which I hope it won't. I'll work on my website more, since I've been neglecting it to earn easy money on Bubblews. I'll...

Why is friendship so difficult?

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 27 Feb 13

I have had many friendships over the years and I must admit that 90% of them were HORRENDOUS! I'm not blaming it on them only. I definitely have my moments. I never ask anyone to help me without being able to do something for...

How Do You Overcome Shyness?

babyeve @babyeve (1048) • Seychelles 26 Feb 13

Most people who tend to be shy are those who have had bad experiences or lack self esteem. This can be due from being talked down to, a bad experience with a stranger, or harshly punished as a child. Other people have been shy...

Porcospino I once read that shyness is way to protect yourself against situations where you could get hurt, and I believe that is true. If shyness holds you back you don't experience rejections, but on the other hand you also miss out on a lot of things. I was very...

Do you think that women shouldn't work?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9460) • United States 5 Jan 13

Which one comes first, to forgive or to forget?

creyos @creyos (275) • Indonesia 8 Dec 10
