[quote=Anonymous]In my personal opinion, many of you are saying this but you live near a beach and most likely go there often. That being said.. I live no where close to a beach and only go to a beach once a year/once every other year. I've gotten knocked down hard by waves before and have had trouble getting back up from them.. I think it'd be even harder for a child who isn't use to it to be able to stand up easily. Therefore I think wearing a life vest of some sort would keep a child safe regardless of where they're at. Granted I think if they're just playing in the sand and you know they aren't going to go into the water then they shouldn't have it on.. But the ocean is too large.. So many kids get pulled under and taken out into sea and never seen again until it's too late. I'd much rather opt for a life vest in the water so that way I'd have time to grab my child before they're gone.. I'd rather look stupid making my child wear a life vest rather than losing my child forever because I didn't![/quote]
