child abuse

i've just discovered a new gymboree downtown, and i think i'm going to sign nate up for a play or music class. i know, i know, why the fuck does a 14 month old need to take a class?? plus, gymboree has a bad reputation, though i don't really know why. what's the big deal? put some mats down, throw some toys and instruments out there and let the tots have fun! yeah, nate nate and i are lacking in the socializing with other kids department, so i figure what the hell. we'll get out of the house and he'll get to roll around and fall over other kids. it's a win-win situation!
