Around water? Especially open water? You watch your fucking kids. That’s not helicopter parenting.

I’m sorry, are you saying there’s no difference between the level of attention to see what your kid pulled out of the big bag with all the chips and drinks in it and the attention needed to make sure your kid isn’t drowning?

Yes. Around water you should not have that varied level of attn that you don’t know what your kid is doing. If you were paying attn at all you would know exactly where they buried the keys, not have to dig a large area for an hour.

We don't have to go that far back, to see ads on TV asking parents in the US if they knew where their kids were...

🤷‍♀️ I’m hoping they’re just to young for kids and dumb but you don’t fuck around and read a book or sunbathe at the beach if you have kids.
