As many of us told our kids as they grew up:
"You want to be treated like an 'adult'?? Then act like one. But until you do, you are going to be watched by us or a babysitter."

Totally agree!!

Also agree.

I am one of the people being complained about and we always leave a lane, greet people as they arrive and say come on in, plenty of room. There are "groups" all day at the pool, so should ALL of theses be prohibited?

Maybe your group is very respectful, and polite, but not all are. But, people have already shown that not everyone plays by the rules, because they don't believe the rules apply to them. So, because of that , Rules cannot and should not be specific to different groups. You just can't say "it's ok for you, but not for you", so rules have to apply to all-that is the only fair way. TV has pools that are specifically designated for water exercise, and the neighbor pools are not designated for water exercise or sports. So why would you want to do exercise in the little neighbor pools when you have a nice big pool for exercise. People who just want to laze around and quietly enjoy the pool cannot go to the sports pools and demand that the people who are there to exercise have to stop so they can enjoy the quiet.

No problem
BTW, I think Mr Rohan's answer was totally wishy-washy. I totally agree with some of the previous posters who say we need employees in TV who have the authority to actually make decisions.
