As a parent of a disabled child my opinion is this woman should have found out what the rules were in advance and taken her child to a facility where the rules would accommodate him. She is not in the right here. I never put my child in a situation like this because I find out what the facts are before we go somewhere like this.
I think your right. Laws are put into place for a reason, and in this day of Law Suits, rules and regulations have to be put in place, as sad as this may seem.
The Mother having a disabled child, should of asked before even attmepting to go to the pool with her child, what the rules were, can't draw the line differently, because her child was disabled. If something happpened to this child in the pool, you better belive, that the Mother, would file a law suit.
And by doing this the child is the one who suffers, disabled children feel differently about themselves, and i am sure once kicked out of the pool, is trying to understand why.
I agree in this instance, that this Mother before placing her child in this type of situation, should of found out the rules, instead, of risking what did happen.
Cool. this lady has a great shot at a big payday that will help her son because of this. Americans with Disability Act takes a harsh view of this kind of thing.
You said it before I could. They have to make reasonable accommodations for someone with disabilities, and "floaties" are about as reasonable as it gets. I smell a lawsuit in the air...

Not a chance. The pool rules allow for specialized flotation devices for handicapped. The "floaties" can hardly be considered specialized flotation devices.

No s&^*t. Floaties are NOT meant to be used as a safety floating device. People are just stupid. Glad mom was kicked out.

I don't agree with what happened, but there will be no payday for breaking the rules...
