[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get the feeling that anything kid-related is not a priority for this administration.[/quote]

sadly, agree. disappointing from a democratic administration. [/quote]

This. You’re insane if you think this. [/quote]

It’s nationwide, though. Even in relatively more open states, pools and playgrounds were the last things to open, if they’re open at all. You can go work out inside the gym, you can eat in a restaurant, or drink at a bar. You can’t go to the playground though.

The problem is a lot of kid activities are free and supported by our tax dollars, or they’re small local businesses. They don’t have a seat at the lobbying table. No one cares about the economic implications of BusyBees or Scramble being open. They definitely care about the economic implications of Great Wolf Lodge though. [/quote]

Well we can’t work out at a gym or other in Virginia. Did you see the restrictions for gyms? They are crazy too. [/quote]

That’s true, but I was more speaking to places that are already more open than we are. The revenue-generating things opened quite a bit before non- or less-revenue generating things, even when they are much riskier - like working out in an indoor gym vs. kids playing on an outdoor playground, or summer camps (which I realize are basically nonexistent in VA, but not other places in the US) vs. schools reopening. Hence the VA state employee offhandedly remarking upthread that there were “Economic considerations.” [/quote]
