[quote=Anonymous]PP who doesn't know how to swim and who said she assumes someone can help her or a child if they fall in: google "what drowning looks like." There is a video they use to teach lifeguards. It isn't to scare you, the point is that it is really hard to tell if someone is in trouble in the water. They don't flail, don't yell, don't call for help. It is quiet, quick, and close to the surface. So if you and your children don't know how to swim enough to get to the edge of the pool, or back to the boat, or to the ladder by the pier...you really need to stay far enough away from pools/boats/piers that you can't fall off.[/quote]
