[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1. Totally reasonable reply. Do you not go swimming in your own pool with just 1 other person around? That legit strikes me as insane and many teens are probably better swimmers than you.[/quote] NP here. I have worked with teens for years. I agree that many teens are stronger than the average adult, and could be better swimmers. But teens' executive functioning skills aren't to the level of adults'. I think that executive functioning skills (attention, response time to size up a situation, decision-making) probably factor into drowning risk as well as strength. [/quote]
