DD cuts her toes on pool floor

She refuses water sox and even cotton socks, because they're heavy -- even if I get them on her, she removes them or says they fall off. (She's 7 and has sock issues outside the pool too.) Band-Aids don't stay on.

Has anybody else solved this? I'm out of ideas.


If she refuses water shoes then she doesn't go in pool
Simple and easy. If she refuses to sit in car seat or buckle up do you let her get away with this? No. So why let her go in pool without protecting feet.
