Bad parents!

These are the moms we see on TV crying about their lost child. It's so sad. Janet, I was like you, and mine still got into some scary situations. Can't imagine what would have happened if we hadn't been so careful. We all need to pray for these two girls. Hopefully they will turn out to be good healthy young ladies in spite of their parents.

Thank goodness you were keeping an eye on them! Did the Mom ever thank you? You certainly deserved it.

No the mom said nothing to me. I saw the kids alone and knew I had to watch them. I don't even know if the mom saw what happened. I bet she thought I was being some paranoid person all up in her business...kinda like when dobie brought the child home safely. I wanted to lecture her, but it would have gone through one beer ear out the other. No point in telling people how to raise their kids.

It so great you were there. This poor girl will probably definitely have some issues because of this. I almost drowned when I was 3. I was at a family reunion in the pond. I wasn't old enough to swim, but i had a life jacket on & me & my cousin were on oposite sides of an inner tube, sitting on it floating. Well she fell off backwards & it flipped over onto me. The life jacket pressed against the inner tube & held me under water. I could get my face out of water, but just barely. Shortly after my mom noticed she hadn't heard me for a while & came running down the hill to save me, i could see her coming. But according to my therapist this is the reason I panic whenever I'm splashed in the face (like by a shower, or tall water slide) or when I'm in a crowd, or any time I feel trapped. These poor girls.....and there was no reason for it.

Thank goodness you were there for her TB! I think some people should need a license to have kids!

We have had so many drowning in NY this past couple of weeks, it's spooky. I wonder where those parents were? I am so sorry for their losses. It is tragic to lose a child, but you must watch your children 24/7.

Yeah I was so shaken up...my heart was going really fast and I was shaking until we left (which was fairly soon after). It's just so sad to see this kinda stuff, and know these innocent children are at risk.
