[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's the dirty little secret: when your kids are older, they want to play with other kids! And that leaves parents free to do what they want to do - some may want to jump in the water anyway, but many of the women at my pool are like me: relieved to have some down-time to read a book or relax in the sun. Without kids, I would never go to the pool or the beach; it's just not my thing. I'm thrilled that I don't have to suit up every evening after work just so they can cool down. I watch my kids like a hawk, but I'll keep skipping my swim suit now that I (finally) can!![/quote] +1 I could've written this! I've never been a pool or beach person, though we go for the kids. Once they hit the point where I was no longer needed in the water, I was thrilled to be able to just veg in the shade with a book or paper (still watching kids, but relaxing). I hate greasing up with sunscreen and wearing the suit, though I don't have any particular body issues. I'm just not a warm weather kind of person. My friends with younger kids envy me, sitting there reading! :D[/quote] +1 I have no body issues whatsoever, I just hate the pool, the sunscreen and spending my time in the sun. Can't wait for the girls to be old enough not to need me in the pool. [/quote]
