POOP IN THE POOL...

My daughter Gabby and I on a poop-free pool day

This morning's POOP IN THE POOL topic struck a nerve for several listeners today. The pool in my development was shut down yesterday after an "incident". Apparently the kid who popped a poop in the pool did not have a swim diaper on. Word has it, the responsible parent will have to pay for shutting down the pool. On one hand, it is frustrating being a non pooper parent who has to clear the area and it's good to know that the offender pooper parent will pay a hefty price for the diaper foul. But then again, the parent and child who poopified the pool will have to endure such embarassment for what happened-it almost seems unfair to hit them with a fine...what do you think? What should happen to pooper parent? Comment below.

1. I have to say, they should be fined....and really, it's their own fault, they should know better than to allow that to happen...babies poop, its a fact of life and unpredictable. I'd bet if it was someone else's kid, they'd have made a big fuss over it. Just diaper the kid and end the possibility of a problem for heaven's sake!!!
2. Why have you not been giving us updates on the weight loss...don't tell me you fell off the wagon!!!

I am glad you had debris-free pool time.

Parents need to take responsibility. I have 3 kids and we basically lived at our development pool. None ever had an accident in the pool. By making the parent pay a fine, they'll be more responsible the next time.

In one of the eastern suburbs a couple years ago, teenagers started doing this as a joke. The pool was closed down for several days in a row because of the repeated incidents. It was gross. Parents should be responsible only because the other people have to pay the consequences and can't swim in the pool.
