My parents have the fence you can put it and out (like a net). It's very secure so I would definitely be adding one of those immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2828001 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 18:23:25 +0000 DesertDreams88 2828001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: FWIW, they might have a secure back yard door.... ours is required by code to either have that or a fence. Our door can't be opened unless you can reach 5 feet high, and pull with the strength of an adult, and it automatically slides shut so it can't be "left" open.</p> <p>If you buy a house with a pool, it's only about 2000 to install a fence or pool net. My friends have a pool net and they are amazingly sturdy and secure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827981 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:58:26 +0000 Foodnerd81 2827981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jennibenni: to prevent both your children and any other children who happen by! My next door neighbors have a pool and I very much appreciate their nice tall secure fence. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827979 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:43:46 +0000 Jennibenni 2827979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: Some people just do not get it. We have a pool at our house and you wouldn’t believe the number of people who’ve asked/assumed we would take the fence down when we moved in. I’m like hello, it’s to prevent my children from drowning, it’s not a landscape statement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827969 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 14:36:06 +0000 psw27 2827969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ugh. This is horrible. </p> <p>Random comment: We have been considering a move to Orange County and I've been shocked by the number of pools on real estate listings without fences AND by how close to the house they pools are - literally 3-4 feet from the back door in some cases!! It terrifies me! I would love a pool but with 2 little ones it scares me so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827963 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:57:01 +0000 agold 2827963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is so sad. It hits way too close to home. I have already reached out to a swim instructor to have my 21 month old pool-loving girl start proper swim lessons asap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827962 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:51:17 +0000 josina 2827962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It breaks my heart to read stories like this. Having children is the scariest thing in the world. :heart: :crying: </p> <p>An 18 month old girl died at our old daycare 2 years ago; she climbed up an above-ground pool ladder and fell into the pool. Something my 15 month old DD would totally do. It can happen so fast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827958 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:40:50 +0000 youboots 2827958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a tragic loss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827954 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:37:05 +0000 snowjewelz 2827954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So so sad. This reminds me last summer there was a family close by my work where twins drowned in the pool :crying: </p> <p>I was with DD1 at a pool party over the weekend and I was watching everyone like a hawk :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827951 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:29:07 +0000 Ajsmommy 2827951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, so sad, I can't even imagine.

After having a child I can hardly bear to read stories like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827943 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:08:01 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2827943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@macintosh: yes, I'm sure I'd worry a bit, too, though I'm sure it'll be fine. My in laws have a pool but are replacing the deck, fence &amp; ladder, so I've been so nervous for my LO &amp; her cousins. 😕 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827941 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:07:00 +0000 LAZB 2827941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So so sad </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827920 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 12:10:36 +0000 FaithFertility 2827920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Horrible horrible horrible </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827914 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 12:02:31 +0000 macintosh 2827914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@GoGoSnoGirl: You're right! I have to believe that pool had no fence, or something of that nature. They were having water day today at daycare with the little wading pools. Even though I know they are supervised and they are a little older, I couldn't stop worrying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827912 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 12:00:47 +0000 macintosh 2827912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: Oh no I'm sorry :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827906 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 11:57:25 +0000 Mrs D 2827906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Devastating...and my little ones name is Emmy so I clearly ugly cried at my desk while reading... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bode-millers-daughter#post-2827905 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 11:55:23 +0000 hellobeeboston 2827905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was crying when i heard this this morning - AWFUL.

It's soooo sad and scary. When I hear stories like this, I like to think it could never happen to me but I still wonder what if :crying: </p> <p><a href="https://www.buzzfeed.com/krystieyandoli/olympic-skier-bode-millers-daughter-died-drowned?utm_term=.ikpWQ3PNr#.ad11GDkl8" rel="nofollow">https://www.buzzfeed.com/krystieyandoli/olympic-skier-bode-millers-daughter-died-drowned?utm_term=.ikpWQ3PNr#.ad11GDkl8</a> </p>
