[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm usually pretty easy going with kid safety because when I went to law school I learned about the Hand formula and now I calculate all risk with that. I let my 10yo play in the road of our cul-de-sac, I let my kids eat grapes and hot dogs (I do watch them though), I let my kids stay home by themselves for periods of up to two hours, my 7-year old bikes by himself to school, etc. But here's the thing about pools: kids are quiet when they are drowning, it doesn't take long to drown, and drowning responsible for about ten deaths per day in the US. And it's not like all these kids are parented by people who didn't care about them or didn't intend to watch them. Not letting your grandparents watch them is a really easy way of drastically reducing the odds of losing your children.
