It is actually. Unless you have a UTI or other infection.

Urine is sterile. People have worse things on their feet, potentially. I'm not scared of a little pee.

You are so lazy and disgusting it's unbelievable. I can't believe you teach your children to do this. I'm sad for them that they are being raised by such an uncivilized parent. Gross.

Meh, whatever.

Birds and animals dedicate on the same grass. Sweat and other unmentionables wash off of people in the same outdoor shower. Like I said, urine is sterile. It's not as if I'm encouraging them to pee in the shallow end. Get over yourself.

I don't encourage this but I certainly don't give a shit. No pun intended.

Exactly. People freak out about things that are of no concern, and give no thought whatsoever to things that SHOULD be concerning (bare feet on grass)

Maybe not 100%, but probably cleaner than feet. That and the potential anal, vaginal, and penile area floaters that are probably in the pool. Lots of crud. Pee the least of your problems.

Ha! Right!

I don't give a shit, unless it's shit...

And am I he only one who would do anything to avoid the nastiness that is a pool bathroom? Questionable liquid all over. Is it just pool water, or is it pee? It smells like pee. And the toilet paper! The wet TP everywhere. And it's always dirty from shoes. The poor attendant just can't keep up.

You know baby per diapers leak out the pee? They are designed not to absorb water just hold in poo so if there is a baby in diapers in the pool u know there is pee in there. And i know lots of adults who pee in the pools.

you guys need to think about the volumes of water here...

a pool is 20,000 gallon of chlorinated water.

when your child pees in the pool, he/she is adding 6 ounces of fluid. or .046 gallons

in the grand scheme of things

adding some pee to the pool isn't doing much. to the concentration.

it would take 21 people peeing at the same to even add one gallon of urine to a pool and still your concentration is 20000 to 1

I'll take those odds...

I don't care about peeing in the pool around the grass. And I did not post these links. But all of the sites are perfectly legit. The question I have is why you focused only on one and why you are so resistant to admitting that you may be wrong?

I don't think it changes the basic premise that peeing on the grass probably is not that big a deal. But why not admit that the methods wrong. Have a today I learned moment. Embrace it

Right there. The problem with America today
