[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It reminds me of the people that decide to sail across the Pacific with their young child.  If you make it without tragedy, you think you are the coolest person for exposing your child to nature and not living a basic suburban life.  Some people either just don't assess risk well, or accept risks that others of us would find unacceptable.  (I see people on the travel forum all the time recommending vacations for families that I would NOT feel comfortable taking my kids on, due to risk of political instability or generally unsafe conditions, but I'm pretty risk averse when it comes to the kids.)

[b]I can't help thinking about all the dumb arguments I have with my spouse, and wondering if they spent their last hours in one of those arguments where one spouse was saying "I told you it was too hot today." or "I think we should turn back now...it's too hot for the dog" and the other spouse didn't want to.  [/b]

Someone upthread posted a timeline and it looks like they didn't find the bodies until more than 24 hours after the death....I would imagine that would significantly impair their ability to make a quick assessment as to cause of death.

+1. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this happened. One parent probably wanted to turn back first, and the other wanted to push on. [/quote]
