I gave up on the pools when my grandson was three. He and I were enjoying a FAMILY pool when a large group of adults came in. I was told, very nicely, that they were going to do their morning exercises now and would we mind going to another pool. When I asked the rec person to do something, I got a shrug of the shoulders. So, I quit using the pools. I refuse to let my grandson learn that a group is more important than an individual or that doing the right thing can be countermanded by a majority.
