[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't have let my 11 year old be in a pool where adults were "occasionally walking over to look, taking turns so that (hopefully) one adult was always watching".  So, in this situation, my choices would be to stay by the pool the whole time.  Getting in would have made that slightly less awkward since apparently you'd think I was rude rather than judgmental.

Were adults drinking?[/quote]

Why can’t your 11 year old swim?  Most 11 year olds don’t need constant supervision in the pool. [/quote]

Ahh there’s the judgment. That’s what it is with you people - admit it - it’s finding something to judge and bond over gossiping about it. If it wasn’t A staying in the pool it would be something else. [/quote]

It’s not judgmental to think “these people aren’t watching their kids well enough for my anxiety so I’m going to park myself here all day and play lifeguard.”?[/quote]

Would be funny if she was a lifeguard as a teen [/quote]
