Exciting holiday memories, or irresponsible parenting?

I saw those pictures too and they made me shudder. Exciting yes, for those who like that kind of thing, but not really the place for children at all.

I saw pictures of this in the Metro this morning and I was horrified! What parent would take a small child there? It doesn't bear thinking about. Fair enough if the over 18s want to take the risk, but I'm shocked that any parent would take their child.

Irresponsible

What are men doing bathing in what is known as the fertility pool. Cannot remember the name of the goddess of the river and fertility but to native tradition that is the pool women go to when they are getting married.

The water doesn't look at all rough or rushing. It even says in the article that there are times when it is much less dangerous to be there. I say exciting holiday memories.

i didnt see any previous deaths mentioned in the article so i guess there hasnt been any because the sensationalist daily express would head line it. so instead of wrapping my child in cotton wool and tying him to a tree with non allergenic soft cotton sheeting, i would be in the water with him and letting him live life to the full.

Just like that other 'freak of nature', dangling (his) baby boy over some German hotel balcony. I trust that the Zambian Police shall do their duty, arrest the 'parents', and, charge them with child endangerment. In Zambia.

If that's what he wants to do then fine but that wee boy is to young to have a say in the matter yet alone realise the significance of it!

What a plonker!

Hello handome Bunches

Definitely irresponsible parenting-poor kid does not know the danger

My heart was in my mouth just thinking about it

Irresponsible parenting, definately! Why would anyone want to put themselves, let alone their child in a vulnerable position like that? Madness!
