Well, everyone has a swimming pool so more kids drown. We didn't get one until my youngest was in 3rd grade. I was too afraid. My godchild's parents put one in when she was a baby and I was just miserable with worry. BUT they put special locks on the doors and an alarm system on the pool.
I can understand drowning more than leaving a kid in the car NO MATTER WHAT THE TEMPERATURE! How can you forget your kid ALL FREAKIN' DAY!! All the dead-car babies were by parents who forget to take them to daycare before driving to work! That's just murder. Plain and simple.
I agree about the swimming pools...my granddaughter's other grandmother has a swimming pool...and I have worried..
But, they have alarms on their doors, and I know that they watch Kailey like a hawk...she is also a diabetic, so we ALL are just a little more attentive than some families would be...
The car thing??? NO EXCUSE--period, especially in Texas, where it is so hot...
