[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to laugh at all of this because growing up we spent 2 weeks ever summer on a beach that didn't have life guards. My parents had 3 kids 2 or less years apart. So there was  summer when we were 2, 3.5 and 5. We had no flotation devices. We are all alive to tell about it.

Not saying to throw caution to the wind or that my parent made the best choices but I also can't imagine having kids were life vests the entire time they are on the beach. Especially a 5 yr old.

FWIW we took my son when he was 3 and he was fine. He was actually a little scared of the ocean and would not have dared go near it without us. [/quote]

Again does not mean it can't happen, of course your not going to have them wear their life vest all day, but when your going in the water with them I think it's like a safety net.  This does not mean that you will not be holding their hands its just a just in case...just in case the waves knock you out at least it'll be easier for you to grab your baby.... safety always...it only takes a second....
