[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I grew up going to the Jersey shore and I’m 100% sure my parents didn’t know anything about rip currents. [/b]My dad never really went to the ocean as a kid and my mom just doesn’t think bad things can happen to her. I was never taught how dangerous the ocean can be. I wonder if there are just more people traveling now, so there are more people at the beach who don’t understand the risks.[/quote] I also grew up going to the Jersey shore and my parents definitely did know about undertow. This was not top secret knowledge. [/quote] Undertow and rip currents are different things, but many people use them interchangeably and still don’t understand the difference. [/quote]
