Again, parents can NEVER take their eyes of kids at the pool. All it takes is a quick second for something to happen. Perhaps there needs to be more lifeguards on duty too?!

We’re the parents even at the pool with this little fella? They’re not mentioned in the story. Absolutely horrifying that there needs to be reminders to supervise kids around water. We have drownings every year, that should be enough warning, but obviously

So glad the child was saved in time !!
Something can happen in a split of a second, I sometimes wonder if it is possible to prefend things from happening even if you watch your kids up close. You’ll probably have to be in the pool with them to keep a close enough eye.

What a hero. Lucky he found him in time.

so lucky to be found in time!

That is scary, it shows that you have to be vegilant and watch your children around water, no matter what age!

So glad the young boy was spotted and saved.

This young boy was just lucky the teenager Aaron spotted him in time.

Parents should never take their eyes off their offspring when they are in or near the water. A fatality can happen almost at any time.

Apparently some try to swim under the water without inhaling enough are to fill the lungs. If they just take a “gulp” of air then can actually faint before drowning somebody doesn’t pull them out of the water quickly enough. There was a tragedy in which a Dad was practising diving and checking how long he could stay underwater. His wife was timing him at his request. His wife was feeding a young baby at the same time and wasn’t really watching him all the time. She was coming up asking her for the time, taking one deep breath and diving under again. I am not saying that is was happened with the young lad, but it may be a possibility, something that all swimmers, especially children should be given strict instructions about.

what a brave young man to rescue that little boy. I bet he and his family feel very proud that he did an amazing job in saving that young boy. Well done to the lifeguards as well, what a good outcome.
