child safety is a joke when they have the children playing in the front parking lot only 5 ft away from the active road. Staff is neglectful in teaching safety when staff makes it a game crossing the road, acting like an air traffic controller hollering WHOOOO WHOOOOOOO... Ignorance, stupidity, neglect and child endangerment. please do in depth research if you are considering this facility. Convenience and price cannot take the place of your child
