[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m surprised any educated person thinks that gym daycare is good for kids. It’s basically like a holding pen. Either preschool or SAHMs are better for kids. [b]I don’t see why jogging strollers or walking with kids isn’t an option. [/b]

Dh and I work out a lot, but it’s at night when they’re asleep so that we aren’t missing more time with them. [/quote]

The bolded is not the preferred option because the kids are there. Walking with kids, even in a stroller, is not a complete break that OP's wife apparently needs. [/quote]

OP is home with one kid.  It is hard to justify needing to spend an extra $200 month bc one gym has a better hot tub.  Especially when you are one income family and on a modest income at that.  The other gym has childcare too so she still gets her “break” [/quote]

It depends on the area but if they live in the far out suburbs then absolutely. 
I have lived in places that isolate me and wouldn't mind driving more if it means my kids have access to fun activities..
They have two kids home during the summer. Lifetime and the y are two different things. Lifetime has classes INCLUDED in the membership so her toddler has more of a preschool experience. They have music, arts and crafts, tumbling and sports game classes INCLUDED in my membership. They also do a 3 hour parents night out once a month at my close, so my husband and I can go out to dinner. The outdoor pool is amazing. I think the membership is totally worth it as long as you're going a few times a week.

Would you think this is your lifetime was 30 min away, you had a HHI of 100k, and you weren’t using it to actually work out? [/quote][/quote]

Absolutely. I have been in his wife's shoes. Driving 30 minutes isn't a big deal if my kids have access to enriching activities. His said she's thin so who cares if she's do intense work outs. It really isn't relevant. [/quote]
