[quote=Anonymous]my otherwise very anxious kid is just starting to lifeguard, but has not expressed this particular concern. I rescued four kids from possible drowning when I was a lifeguard in high school (one absolutely would have drowned -- we were the only two people at the pool). I look back on it and think "better me, the diligent and straight arrow kid, than some stoner working as a lifeguard who might have missed him." As a side note, it amazes me only in hindsight how there was no follow-up whatsoever about the incidents. No after-action reviews, no critiques, no fact-findings, no lessons learned, no reports, no paperwork. Just a friendly warning from me to not leave the shallow area again until you know how to swim. Obviously, I've been in government and the corporate world too long. [/quote]
