I guess it would boil down to how much it would cost (in actual costs plus the cost of making a potentially bad PR move). I would be really surprised to find out the casino industry hasn't done any inquiry into the idea and decided against it already, because on its face it seems logical if they want to attract customers. I wouldn't think the industry would start up daycare operations for any altruistic reasons

ETA other people have posted that some local casinos in Vegas do this already, so it must make sense for them.

Hey if casinos wanna implement it and communities are in support, I'm not gonna stop them.

If casino management thinks running a daycare is worth dealing with any PR nightmares over news stories about enabling people to blow their rent money, then they'll figure out a way to do it. Considering how much money the collective gambling industry makes, I would be shocked if they already haven't run the numbers and scenarios and decided it's not a good business decision.

This definitely would work well for me, probably you, and the majority of the population, but feels like it could become enabling for people with gambling addiction. It's an excuse to drag the kids there more often since at least they'll be in someone's care. We're talking about the kind of gamblers who wear adult diapers to the casino so they don't have to leave the slot machine to take a piss. One bad news story about how casino daycare enabled someone to blow their rent money and it's a PR nightmare.

On the upside, the regulars' kids will get to know each other really well if they're in casino daycare together, so I guess they can build solidarity/friendships out of it.

This is awesome! I took in my void from living the street life and it took a solid year for him to overcome his medical issues and fear-based behaviors (and put on much-needed weight). Much like Panko, he immediately took to living indoors and was a biscuit factory right from the start.

Happy for your family and wishing you many long and cozy years together! ETA to add cat tax of our big-hearted happy boy https://i.imgur.com/pG7iZG8.jpg

100%. Fries go from awesome to cold and gross incredibly quick, especially in this weather and ESPECIALLY when transported in a lidded container.

What I would do: hit up a supermarket and pick up 3-4 kinds of dipping sauces/salad dressings. Call ahead to the pizza shop closest to the destination, and set a pickup or delivery time 15 minutes before you want to eat.

The new H-Mart in North Philly has a pretty good selection for the area. Not CC but you can stock up on tons of Asian groceries while there
