What do I do if the YMCA does not allow my son in the exercise room because of age restrictions?

I have a family membership to the YMCA. I would like to have my son join me in my workouts, but he does not meet their age requirements. How do I force them into allowing me since I pay for his membership?

Some YMCA's provide babysitting services so you can work out and your child will be taken care of. If your YMCA does not provide this, you should look into getting a babysitter for the times that you work out. The reason they do not allow children in workout areas is for their own safety.

When you paid your membership you agreed to their terms and conditions. So you are screwed until he gets of age.

sorry, you should have read the age restrictions before you signed up.

Use the family dressing rooms.

Just tell them he is a midget.

Children shouldn't be lifting weights. Even boys in high school can develop problems from lifting weights.

Fake ID.

THE RISK OF HIM BEING HURT, LAW SIUTS,
READ THE MEMBERSHIP CONTRACT,
IF IT IS NOT MENTIONED, FIGHT IT,
IF IT IS, U R OUT OF LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SEE IF THEY HAVE A CHILD CARE CENTER LOCATED RIGHT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
