You pay $12,000 in property taxes and your kid can't get a free library card?

You can quote all of the rules and regulations and NH residency requirements - the bottom line is that this situation is absurd.

Give the teenager a library card and move on.
Agreed. This issue comes down to common sense and unfortunately it is often lacking in government, even apparently at the local level. I think the parent has a right to be furious. It is not about the money rather it is about respect and principle.
