[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This post brings me to tears.  Why are we targeting children playing with their fathers?  It's a sweet and loving thing.  [/quote]

That football hitting my face is not sweet and loving. My being asked to put down my book to “pass” that stray ball to you that your kid neglected to catch or threw astray is not sweet and loving. Everything is not about your kids lady. [/quote]

Calm down Karen.  If you want some quiet pool for just you, build your own.  [/quote]

When people are in a public space, they need to show consideration for other people. A public pool is one of those places. People who want to throw balls, squirt guns, etc. are the ones who need to build their own pools. They can hit each other in the head all they want in their own space. [/quote]

There’s a baby pool for people who are overly sensitive about their children being subjected to…Nerf balls.[/quote]

Exactly.

Think of the millions of kids who are killed or maimed by errant ounces of foam rubber toys every year.

Thoughts and prayers. [/quote]

It’s a wonder any children even survive the summer, what with Nerf toys whizzing around like incoming mortar fire.

We need reasonable,  common-sense fun safety laws. And by that I of course mean a total ban on anything popularly regarded as “fun”.

Your out of control boys with no discipline can have their “fun” at your house. This is a public pool and they have to share it with the rest of us. The world doesn’t revolve around them. Shocking to you, I know. [/quote]

I absolutely love my two out of control boys running around with their equally out of control buddies, raising hell, throwing balls, frisbees, splashing people, having squirt gun battles, doing cannonballs, and irritating the sh!t out of all the stiffs at the pool. I live for this stuff. Because I know they’re having fun. And that’s what being a 10 year old is about.

I buy them ice cream is they can get other moms to yell at them. It’s a game we play. [/quote]

These same old-farts complaining about the rowdy kids are the same people that probably complain that 'kids spend all day on video games' or 'when I was a kid, i wouldn't come home until dark'

Just ignore these fun-haters.  Their lives must be miserable to get annoyed at the sound of children's laughter[/quote]
