[wmbondurant]

kids have a distorted sence of what's dangerous and what's not. Tragic affair .

[vagabond]

What a tragic waste. The poor parents.

[Sharon]

Words mean nothing in situations like this

The family devastation will be crippling.

Poor girls and poor dad. I cant imagine the hurt this would make.

Maybe she hated them, they may have been terrible, puppy-kicking bitches. At least she didn't like them enough to teach them how to swim. Seriously, how can a human being not know how to swim unless they've been raised in the Sahara?

Maybe poverty played some part in them not having swimming lessons? We don't know if the mother could swim herself, and if so she wouldn't have been able to teach them.

It's swimming, not rocket science. Dogs and horses can do it, and humans have four built-in paddles. You can blame poverty for a lot but come on.

[Susan]

If that was true then this wouldn't have happened.

Inhabitants of small islands are invariably competent swimmers, even if they've never even heard of money. I'm going on the assumption that those girls lived next to a lake, so I can't find an excuse for their parents, really. Not to disrespect you in any way, mind you. You're a cool dude. Panzram was a man's man. So to speak.
