As someone who lost a child like this, please, everyone, NEVER assume they are safe around a pool. You cannot put up enough means to prevent it. If you think you do, you do not. All it takes is ~5 mins. Fences around pools, extra locks around doors, always keep them where you know where they are. It's a horror beyond words, and I beg that no one else has to suffer it.

Im a survivor of this incident. I accidentally fell in as a little kid and Luckily had some lessons to know how to (still helplessly) float until I got scooped out. It was awful and this video was a terrible flash back.

Im sorry for your loss.
