So here’s the thing me and my 5 friends were hanging out one day and we went to the park and it was really hot so we decided to go swimming somewhere are friend has a pool but she was out of town so we called and asked her if we could go use her swimming pool and she said yea but let me try to get a hold of the neighbors so they won’t call the cops on you all. so she can’t get a hold of them. so she said you all can use it. So we go in and start swimming and we don’t even stay there for 5 minutes than we leave. the next day they come home and their neighbors were like 5 trespassers were in your house and in the pool. now they are filing a police report on us even though we weren’t even in the house. Could we get probation? What all can happen?

i know this is long, please read and advise. memorial day swimming and bbq at my brothers’ house. looked out the window, saw my niece’s boys ages 8 and 7 at the side of the deep end of the pool (12 ft) the oldest leaned out to get a basketball out of the water. they do not know how to swim. i gasped, then was relieved when he didn’t fall in. my niece (their mom) was eating and not watching them, she usually doesn’t watch or supervise them well. today my sister (the boys grandmother) questioned me why i thought it was ok for them to be by the pool!!!!! hello!!!!!!! and she brought up a time when i told another family member to put a life jacket on his 4 yr old son because he took it off and was getting back in the pool. she had the audacity to ask me if i “liked” the other kid (4 yr old) better!!! it ticked me off. oh and she said i have to ask you something and asked me not to get mad about it. i replied i usually just get hurt by her questions. and i was hurt when she asked me that and felt like i had to scramble and explain myself! then i was upset about it later and texted her ok that i just would not watch any of the kids. the parents don’t watch them and there are several who get in with life jackets which is just stupid to think that makes it ok. when i was a teenager i saw a little kid nearly drown because he tipped over face down and nobody was paying attention, he could have drowned. also have 2 family members (father and young son) who drowned following some flooding near their rural home. i have witnessed 2 other drownings, one was a teenager who drown a couple of summers ago while we were on vacation and the other was an elderly man who fell in water while fishing. so yes, i will say i am very cautious and frightened about the swimming pool and little kids especially because the parents are not around and not watching their kids like they should be. my 2 kids (teenagers) are good swimmers, but if they are in the water, i am there and watching. i do not leave. and i feel like the other parents take it for granted because i am cautious, it’s ok to leave their non swimming kids in the pool because i am there. meanwhile they are off eating, drinking, visiting at the get together. then to be scrutinized with the questions my sister asked well! i told her maybe i just wouldn’t watch any of them anymore. i’m angry and hurt. no, i didn’t think it was ok for them to be poolside, but their mother knew they were out there and she never supervises them good. after the leaning over the pool to get the ball incident, my sister did go get the boys out of the gated pool area but a lot of times the gate gets opened again and does not stay shut because so many people going back and forth. ok, so advise, please and thanks for reading all this
