Default Buddy System

My friend in college was taking a class as a phys ed major , where she was in a swimming pool with others. One of the students drowned right in front of the teacher. No one saw her struggle. They apparently did not teach the buddy system that I was taught as a child.

I also once had to climb up on a picnic table to scream at some young mothers who were chit chatting. A baby was at the bottom of the kiddie pool! I was behind a fence. I agree with the interacting of the little ones for their own saftey.
