[quote=Anonymous]I would let my kid do that at 8-9, but I'm never watching another kid. It sounds like a very shallow lake; assuming there's not a sudden dropoff, the risk is relatively low because the kid can touch bottom. Lakes are scarier than pools to me, because you can't see underwater, so that's my main concern. At four, I wouldn't, unless the kid had on a floatation device like a life jacket or puddle jumper. But it's not in the realm of obviously neglectful -- the lake was shallow, the kid could touch, and the parent was watching, even if they were also watching another kid. [/quote]
