N Street's policy has changed over the years. Now kids under 13 or so need 
parental permission when hanging out there unsupervised. Adults ask kids about 
who said it was ok to be in the common house.  No kids are allowed in the 
TV/piano/play room for the first 20 minutes of the meal.  

Our common house has four members living there and sharing the same kitchen and 
living room areas.  When families with kids have lived there, their kids, of 
course didn't need permission to be anywhere in the house.
