It is absolutely amazing how all of you jump to conclusions without even knowing any facts. I read a post on another news site from a cousin of the child who said that she was walking near the pool, collapsed and fell into the pool. The mother was screaming for help as she was drowning. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for condemning her.

re: UnionsSuck, Maybe that should be made a law, then stuff like this would not happen. It should be mandatory for Hotels/Motels to have Life Guards on duty and to shut the pool down when they availibe. Even adults drown.

Oh, so she went to school...well, that changes everything. I know adults who can't swim. I'm not being self-righteous. Just stating a bit of common sense (which it seems, isn't so common these days)...no child should be left on their own and especially not in a pool! I don't think I need the "facts" for that.
