Talk about a life or death situation!

So, crazy experience today! We have a pool in our complex, which we haven't used much in the past years because it wasn't heated, but this year they are heating it so my neighbor and I decided to take our babies swimming. It was a beautiful day, not too hot and not too windy. Well when we got out there, there were 3 kids already out there-unsupervised.

Well the kids didn't have very good manners first of all. They were nice enough kids, but had NOOOOO sense of personal space-very annoying. Well a while later two more kids and their mom came out and the kids jumped in while the mom when and laid down on a lounge chair. Well the youngest of the original kids didn't know how to swim (WHY WOULD YOU LET YOUR KID GO OUT TO A POOL NOT KNOWING HOW TO SWIM!!!). Well he went out a little further than he could reach and grabbed onto a little girl that had come in later--well what do you imagine happened? Both kids couldn't reach the bottom, and the boy was pulling the girl down! The mom wasn't watching and the girl was under for a couple seconds (which seemed like minutes to me) when my friend and swam over as fast as we could, while holding our babies! Thank goodness we got them both up and to the side of the pool. At that point the mom finally sat up and came over to see what happened. Her little girl was sobbing on the side of the pool and the mom didn't even hug her! She just told her to stay away from that boy. If it were my kid I would have found his mom and given her a piece of my mind!!!!

I am grateful that we were there. I hate to think what would have happened if the mom hadn't have seen this happening..............

KIDS SHOULDN'T BE SWIMMING ALONE-ESPECIALLY IF THEY CAN'T SWIM!!!!! Some parents..............
