Condos seem to get around the "can't we all just live together" issues by creativing voluminous regulation books that all residents are expected to know.<BR/><BR/>As AlphaGirl pointed out, it is against the law to apply age discrimination to a tenant applicants. Senior housing is the one exception -- in California if not for the entire U.S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16233914.post-1151350111542937682006-06-26T15:28:00.000-04:002006-06-26T15:28:00.000-04:00If common sense were common, "childfree" zones wou...If common sense were common, "childfree" zones wouldn't be necessary. Children have limited attention spans and a need to move. Therefore, there are places they don't want to be (and that no one else wants them to be in).<BR/><BR/>Yes, kids need some special accomodation. But so do adults, and we deserve that consideration. I assume that even parents who choose a babysitter for their date night out don't want to listen to someone else's screaming child in a nice restaurant.kThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02382140449117155852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16233914.post-1151196317232132872006-06-24T20:45:00.000-04:002006-06-24T20:45:00.000-04:00Sometimes I think people with children just think ...Sometimes I think people with children just think we need to being understanding to them...like they have more of a right than we do because they are parents.
