Have a Nice Day!
Yeah, it bugs the heck out of me when one of my good friends STILL makes her daughter wait a half hour after eating before getting back into the pool, even on a scorcher day.
Sighing and rolling my eyes,

About the swimming.
Sandra, I think that is probably pretty on target. It was a way to get kids
to "take a break" for the adults convenience

OH! I hadn't even thought of that one.
Everyone who ever told me that story, it seems, lived in a solid-floor house.
Dirt, or concrete. And they learned to bake cakes in iron woodstoves.
RIGHT, like a kid running can shake THAT, even on a wooden floor.
Bad thing is, the moms sometimes really believed it because someone told THEM
it was true.
What is with people, and doing without thinking?
