There are few things more fun for a kid than a day at the swimming pool. Equipped with their floaties, toys, and the last bits of their parents’ patience, they make their way to it ready to splash everyone around them and, likely, sample some pool water, whether by accident or not.
While it’s a blast for kids, for parents, it often feels like the longest day ever. They’re on constant high alert, making sure that their child is safe, while trying to bear with the cacophony of kids yelling “Moooom!”, “Look at this”, “Are you watching??”, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
If you’re curious about what the rest of the ‘iceberg’ entails, you came to the right place, as today we have an entire list of parents’ tales about kids vs. swimming pools prepared for you. Depicting the good, the bad, and the ugly of pool time, these X (formerly Twitter) posts ought to make you giggle, so make yourself comfortable and enjoy! And make sure to upvote your favorites, too.
