> Drowning is the single most dangerous form of activity for children. We're more than happy to ban guns, while they're not even close to as dangerous as swimming pools. Even traffic accidents come second as the cause for death for children, after swimming pools.
That may be true for children age 1-4, because they can move around but not swim. However, cars, falls, and poison are far more dangerous overall. Learning how to swim in a safe manner reduces the risk of drowning.
