Do You Have a Pool Barrier?

It is swimming season and you've got to watch your kids around the pool. Pool barriers should never be used as an excuse to not watch your kids closely. If the gate is open, it does no good. You've heard, "watch your kids around the pool." That doesn't say enough. If you have kids and if you have a pool, you simply watch your kids, you don't just watch them around the pool.

They may be able to open the gate or learn to climb over. Many times when there is a drowning, you hear the parent say that they just went inside or looked away for a minute. It always sounds like an excuse.

Arizona has a pool barrier law. Each municipality can adopt there own standards as long as they meet or exceed the state standard.
