[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my earliest memories is nearly drowning in our nextdoor neighbor’s pool. I was 3 and by my parents’ account a confident swimmer, and there were 6-7 adults watching the kids swim, 3 of whom were even in the pool with us. But I got stuck under a big, heavy floating lounge chair thing and got disoriented and couldn’t figure out how to swim around it and surface. I had to be pulled out and CPR done. Drowning takes seconds, and even good swimmers are vulnerable to panic and accidents.[/quote] I get the oogies in my stomach every time I see a post on FB of a group of kids and adults at their pool with multiple floats and even worse, a cold beer in each one of them. Floats are super dangerous in pools when kids are around. [/quote]
