[quote=Anonymous]I had a terrible experience last night when i went to pick up my 3yo from a gymnastics class at the Arlington Y/Woodmont Center.  I thought I would share it in case others have had similar experiences.   I dropped my DS off for his class and because of the rain, I did not stay on the premises with my younger child - generally, we play on the playground and wait for him.  It is a drop off class and parents are not permitted to stay to watch.  When i arrived back to pick him up (at 5:57 for a 6pm end of class), I found him walking alone (barefoot) along the sidewalk in front of the gym.   
Worse, when i confronted the gentlemen who seemed to be in charge, i was told that he was standing there and was watching and something about how he misinterpreted the situation and then he turned to my son and started to tell him he should never leave without a parent.  Really?  he's THREE.   that is YOUR job.

Going forward (class wraps up later this month), i will obviously stay on the grounds and wait for him.  Is this a common issue?  How do your drop-off classes handle pickups?  These instructors don't know these kids well or which kid belongs to which adult, etc.  [/quote]
