I have commented about this on a different thread but I am so shocked to see the amount of parents really not interested in what their kids were doing at the waterpark we went to, here is the worst part that happened (I have copied and pasted from other thread)
I was supervising my 5 year old by the baby pool, when I heard a massive thud, I turned around to see a boy of about 3 clutching the back of his head, he was screaming in agony, I rushed to him (nobody else seemed bothered) and led him out the pool whilst I was waving to get the lifeguards attention. Then as we got out the little boy got sick all over the floor, we were looking around for his parents but no one seemed to know, the lifeguard at this stage looked like a rabbit caught in headlights and wasn't sure what to do. Then suddenly the mum appeared (which would have been a good five minutes since this had happened). I went and told her what had happened and the being sick after. She seemed more bothered about defending herself saying she was watching him he was playing on the slide I left them with the lifeguards. (I have just realised I didn't say that he had obviously slipped at the top of the slide and banged his head)
I really was unsure of what else I could have done, no one seemed at all bothered. I was also holding my one year old at the time, and supervising my 5 year old.
Seriously what is wrong with some people, it's just an accident waiting to happen.
So I suppose I am asking AIBU to expect people to know where their children are around water at all times?
Just unbelievable.
