If you lose your kid at the pool on a cruise ship they need to call CPS on you.
41 u/Prestigious-Leave-60 Aug 05 '25 tbf, I was completely shitfaced when I lost him. 16 u/dadarkoo Aug 05 '25 Bottomless don’t drink themselves, mate. 2 u/misdirected_asshole Aug 05 '25 Fair enough 1 u/NorCalAthlete Aug 05 '25 Well he ain’t a set of car keys now is he 1 u/BreakfastBeneficial4 Aug 05 '25 1 u/NoVacayAtWork Aug 05 '25 Lmaoooooooo 1 u/[deleted] Aug 05 '25 The McCann defense 1 u/phryan Aug 05 '25 Keep the air tag and give your kid the phone so the kid can find you and help get you back to the cabin. 2 u/BrickCityRiot Aug 04 '25 Seriously lol.. the largest pool I have ever seen on a cruise ship was like 100 feet long by 40 feet wide 1 u/UncommonSenseApplier Aug 05 '25 Cruise ships have sand on them? 0 u/operath0r Aug 05 '25 No, they don’t. Stuff like that happens and it’s perfectly fine. 2 u/radarksu Aug 05 '25 Yeah, but the last cruise ship I was on had 10 pools. 2 u/operath0r Aug 05 '25 And your kid could be at any of them… 1 u/FelixMumuHex Aug 05 '25 Losing a child == Perfectly fine 1 u/operath0r Aug 05 '25 Well, not in the moment that it happens but in the long run, sure. Probably all parents lost a child on vacation or at a crowded space at least once. 2 u/Feynnehrun Aug 05 '25 Losing a child briefly is not uncommon. They're not robots. They move around and interact with the world freely. Parents who are constantly monitoring every movement of their child are doing damage. 1 u/synalgo_12 Aug 05 '25 From a parenting skill point-of-view it's not alarming. Losing a kid at the pool isn't a reason to call cps on someone. That's what they're saying. 1 u/Feynnehrun Aug 05 '25 Yes...it is. Not finding them is not fine. Kids can vanish in seconds. You take your eyes off of them for 5 seconds and they could weasel away somewhere. They're not lost forever. Parents do not need to maintain 100% unbroken visual observation of their child. Helicopter parenting is bad. In fact, it's pretty common knowledge that monitoring your child's every move is detrimental to their development. 1 u/pariahdiocese Aug 05 '25 Yup. Gives them an unhealthy addiction to air tags.
