Having checked the stats...
In 2007... children aged:
<1................... 57 drownings
1-4.................. 458 drownings (#1 rank of deaths by
unintentional injury for 2007 in this age group)
5-9.................. 122 drownings
apparently people get stupider as they age as opposed to smarter for a while...
10-14............... 102
15-19............... 630
and the numbers hover in the 300's/400's on up through all ages
I don't know if the raw numbers tell the whole story though.
There were three adult drownings in North Carolina over the Memorial Day
Weekend. All three lost their lives while trying to rescue children.
The children were rescued.
