Oh, I understand now.....sort of. LOL.

In answer to your question. I would feel uncomfortable if four workers came into the pool area and I was the only one in the pool.

Understand but have never heard of a problem.

1. I've never seen that happen.
2. It wouldn't bother me.
3. If they were good looking, I'd probably enjoy watching them walk from point A to point B while I was taking in the sun on the lounge chair or relaxing in the water.

Well.....you need to know that I look "hot" in my bathing suit. NOT!!!! LOL. Just joking.

Seriously, I would feel uncomfortable if there were no one else around but that's just me.

That is unacceptable they should be shunned and their homes confiscated.

What else do you do in a swimming pool. Just soaking urinating and Worshiping TFG.

I do notice people in our neighborhood pool go in and are in for hours. Does make one wonder.

There is an age requirement. No matter how nice this couple was, they showed a very decisive, intentional lack of respect to YOU by choosing to violate the rules.

The adult pool is not your personal pool where you get to make or break the rules, or decide who gets to break them on everyone else's behalf.

If you let a 25-year old couple hang out at the 30+ pool, then you need to let the 20-year-old couple hang out at it. If you let them hang out at it, then you need to let the 15-year-old couple hang out at it. And then that 25-year-old couple should be allowed to bring their infant baby and 2-year-old.

When you break the rule to accommodate the interests of one, at the expense of the interests of everyone else, then you invalidate the rule.

We have family pools, set up JUST so that people under 30 have a place to go. That is where they should go.

We have three grown children who will be visiting for Christmas. They are 34, 32 and 26. It is ridiculous that 5 adults would have to use the family pools because one of us is not 30 yet. I understand the rules for adults only pools and not wanting a bunch of partying at the over 30 pools but certain situations don’t make sense.

Sadly, it is impossible to write perfect rules or laws. I would not mind the youngest, but it is not up to me.

If they changed it to 26 and one of yours was 25, you know what I'm getting at, pretty soon everyone would want them to be family pools. Best to leave well enough alone especially now that there are so many family pools being built south of 44.

Family pools very often have no younger people in them so you might be worrying about something that will not happen

At least you have a pool to go to. It's not like you are being told anyone under 30 cannot go to a pool in The Villages. The family pools are for the under 30 crowd and the oldsters can go to them too. Win, win.
