Re: CPSC: Drowning is the No. 1 cause of child injury death
It makes me glad that it is the law here that all pools must have a fence arround all pools at a height not less than 1.2m with a self locking gate. (There is more to it than that, but thats the basics.) Although the house we have just purchased is compliant with the law, we are going to put in an additional fence, as the house makes part of the current fenced area, so we can let our 2.5yo out to the back yard (which you have to pass the pool to get to) without too much supervision. Limits the area arround the pool, but given the unthinkable other posibility .....
Im sure the this specific law has saved countless lives over the years.
