[quote=Anonymous]I read recently that the age children most commonly drown is like 7 or 8. As the parent of a 6 yo who is a pretty good swimmer (for his age), I couldn't help but wonder whether this was around the age we start to let our guard down and the kids start to exercise more independence. I have 3 kids: 1,4,6. I do allow the 6 yo in the deep end while I'm in the shallow end with the 4 and 1 yo. In my perfect world, I'd be in the deep end to watch him, but I'm simply outnumbered. With that said, the deep end typically only has a few ppl in it, and the lifeguards are very strict with the rules. Our former pool was much more lax and had much more roughhousibg allowed. [/quote]
