People who would offer to pay are decent and responsible

People who would blame the other person for what their child did while they weren't supervising him/her are tacky and selfish

Also, people who bring their phone to the pool seem to expect that it will stay dry, even if they take no precautions such as putting it in a purse or a waterproof cover. Because.

Thank you for proving that posters point. You did it perfectly.

Sure. I've spent a lot of time at the pool. Unlike that woman, I guess. And you.

The free range approach, may cost you at times.

And you keep proving her point.

Leaving expensive electronics next to water where it could easily be splashed/knocked is foolhardy.

I dropped my own phone in the baby pool last summer.. it was fine after 24 hours in rice.

Right hand: High fives for all the responsible parents here. (and to you, the mother who thinks that me bringing my phone to a pool makes it my fault, these high fives are not for you)

Left hand: Not the thumb, not the pinky finger, not the ring finger, and not the pointer finger for everyone else.

No. The stupid mother who put her phone down at kiddie pool.

How about the parent not watching poolside a kid not old enough to know better?

Oh didn’t you hear? You don’t have to watch your kids at the kiddie pool. Drowning is nonexistent.

You should work on your reading comprehension. You are truly the only one saying that.

Really?! My mistake.

Guess I’m just confused when plenty of responses have said, it’s just the kiddie pool and they don’t need that much supervision. When drowning was brought up someone called that poster crazy. When asked why the child who threw the phone into the pool wasn’t being watched the responses were it’s a kiddie pool you don’t have to hover. Other responses were the kiddie pool is where children can run free.

Please quote exactly where people said you don’t need to supervise in the kiddie pool. Multiple people have tried to explain to you you can supervise your child without being within arms reach and that toddlers can quickly grab things. It’s like speaking to a rock.
You are a drama queen/king. How do you spend this time on DCUM without being six inches from your child? They must be unsupervised/drowning/choking/dieing because their parent let them run two feet away.

Look I get it. You’re that parent that thinks supervision is occasionally glancing over and then acting shocked when something happens. I get that you relate to the mother whose child tossed the phone bc your child would probably do that too. I’ll be a drama queen if that makes you feel better about your lackadaisical parenting.

When you fail to answer the question and just throw out more insults, you lose credibility. You are making shit up in your own head.

This is an example of the polite, mature DCUM parent.

Someone should also let the owner of the phone know that if she leaves it outside, it may rain and get wet.
IMO the phone owner is too stupid to own a phone.

Read through the thread. Read the last few pages.

Insults? You’re the one calling someone a drama queen and comparing them to a rock. And now you’re cussing. Soooo....

I was just thinking, of course this person thinks it is everyone else's fault when their phone next to the baby pool gets broken! The immaturity is right out front.

yep, might as well leave it on the shoulder of the highway and then be shocked and blame the driver of the car who runs it over!

What?! Did the phone grow legs and jump in the pool? Or did an unsupervised toddler go up to a strangers belongings and toss the phone into the pool? I’m so confused how posters are trying to change what happened.
