So I ran into this recent article about children going to kiddie gyms, and it bothered me a bit. I've taken the boys to Gymboree and My Gym, but I can't picture taking them to a gym with mini treadmills and elliptical machines. The way I figure it, if the parents can take the kids to a gym for 45 minutes, they can spend that time at a park with them, or walking around the neighborhood, or playing ball in the backyard. Both the kids and the parents will benefit from either of these, and they'll spend quality time together. This seems like yet another way to get kids to grow up quicker than they have to. What do you think?
