This 3k school is really bad. My baby is three years old. Because he occasionally wets his pants in school, the teacher won’t let him drink water. What is the concept? He doesn’t give him any water at all. He brings his own water cup. He is three years old. The child is in school and has no water to drink all day long. The first thing he says to his parents after school is that he wants to drink water. The amount of water in the water cup he brought has not decreased at all. It is not that he does not give the child a drink for a day or two, but at least it has not been given for more than two weeks. Originally, I didn’t want to bring this matter to light and gave the teacher leeway and a chance to make corrections. However, after I found out, the teacher did not make corrections and even asked us, saying that we were not helpful. Children, I want to ask the teacher, on what basis and how do you judge? We have not helped the children. Do we want the children to wet their pants? You don’t need to comment on how to educate my children. My children don’t pee their pants at home. My children know how to go to the bathroom when they need to pee. The sports classroom in your school does not have a bathroom, and there are children who cannot act like adults. I feel like I have to hold my urine for a long time. He is only three years old. If he were thirteen years old, we wouldn’t come to school with you. If you can’t accept what happens to a three-year-old child, then don’t open a 3k school. Just open one. University, let alone your children who don’t wet their pants at home, even if they wet their pants at school, you shouldn’t deny your children water. Your own children don’t have water to drink at school. How do you feel? I want to ask how you can bear to do this. Where is your conscience for abusing our children? Why are your hearts so dark? In a school like this, which parent would dare to send their children here? Time will tell people’s hearts. If you don’t believe what I say and insist on trying, you should come here to go to school. Your children are young. Choosing a good school is very important, I regret it very much

A startling amount of student from La Guardia Community College and the high school are at this Y. None of them are African American or Black, but varying shades of white Latino.They use the word "nigger" a lot, like clowns seeking a confrontation. I would not continue to attend such a low quality, low class and filthy place, where my and any one Black like me has their humanity and very existence challenged by ill raised and ignorant children. i could never allow my own child to be exposed to trash that is allowed to use this Y as a place to monger hate. I did NA - ZI this coming from a supposedly christian place/organization.

Not enough signs 🪧 to remind people to take shower before entering the pool. Shower room always leaks (for months) or missing shower head..(seems to be very wasteful of water) reported a few times but staffs don’t seem to care of fixing

Front desk staff was not really friendly. My sister only goes there for a weekend and she took me as a guest not knowing guest pass is only valid for weekdays. I did pay 20$ for day pass which was not a problem. But the way front desk was acting as if we came from different planet and rude for no reason.
