[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly this is the biggest none problem problem ever. In a few years your kids will be in school full time. In the interim your wife is basically saying for about 2500/yr she can have better quality of life which impacts her own health, your marriage and your family. That’s the cost of 10 therapy sessions. Get on board! This is an amazing solution to the physical and mental challenges of being a stay at home parent. [/quote]

Wow.  You really think Lifetime is that amazing that your marriage would crumble and you’d need therapy if you had to have Y membership instead? She can work out at the Y, they have childcare, it is close, and he can save 5k per year.  Not having a Lifetime membership isn’t a hardship shouldn’t be creating mental anguish.  This is nutty.

Why is that so hard to understand? Stay at home moms are isolated and guess what that means? They are more likely to be depressed. It's easier to connect with mom's at lifetime as they have a cafe, and outdoor pool. It's a different experience. She's saying she leaves lifetime feeling refreshed and it improves her life more.

Except she isn’t isolated.  She has nearly the same amenities at the Y, including outdoor pool.   It just isn’t as nice I guess.  Lifetime vs Y shouldn’t throw you into a breakdown or deep depression [/quote]

It's not the same. I have been a member at both. One of the biggest difference is that lifetime included studio classes for the kids. If they ended up adding gymnastics at the y, which is extra then it would equal the same. They also have arts and crafts, basketball, and parents night out. It's not that much more. Also lifetime has the children pool open everyday all day. The y also has limited availability for children to swim year round. [/quote]
