[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accidental drowning is like the leading cause of death in kids under 2. I have literally nothing positive to say about the parents here, I honestly don't know much about them, but what I do know [b]is that this type of accident can happen to anyone. It is like hot car deaths,[/b] where people like to pontificate about how it couldn't happen to them but the reality is that it can and it happens to good parents and bad parents all alike. Anyone who is saying they literally ALWAYS had eyes on their child is fooling themselves. Most of us are fortunate in that those moments where kids slipped away didn't end in tragedy. [/quote] No it can’t. People who keep eyes on their kids at all times at other people’s houses, especially with pools, don’t have this happen to them. People like to say it can happen to anyone to make them feel better but it’s not true. In those cases mistakes were made. If you’re watching your child appropriately it can’t happen that they drown in a pool.[/quote] You are wrong. I study drowning for a living. [b]Kids have drowned when their parents were using the bathroom.[/b] The key (proven in other countries) is to require four sided (aka isolation) fencing, with a self closing self latching gate around backyard pools. Legislators are at fault for not requiring this proven measure, to prevent the leading cause of death for toddlers in America. They deserve protection Regardless of how informed, mature, sober or responsible their caretakers are. [/quote] If parents are using the bathroom, who is watching the kids? No one. Toddler gets out in their crib while I use the restroom. Unless I delegate another adult to watch the toddler. [/quote] I meant to say the toddler would get put in their crib if I needed to go to the bathroom and I was alone in the house with them. [/quote]
