[Publib] children of staff

[Doris Lively]

I have had that problem in the past and the statement below is now on 
everyone's job description, which we go over when someone is interviewed 
for a job.  It is included in the "Work Environment & Expectations" part of 
the job description.

Your children are not to be brought to work with you, come to your work 
location after school until closing, or otherwise "hang out" at your work 
location except under extreme circumstances and only with prior permission 
of the Director.
