Dead girl in swimming pool, Damascus (Salvagente): “Is it correct to entrust children to other children?”
And President Damascus expressed himself precisely on this issue in the aftermath of the two accidents that occurred in recent days in two water parks. “Perhaps the time has come to address the issue – commented Damascus -. Is it normal to entrust other children to children? It is normal that the educators are almost all minors and that there is some responsible adult just to have them but then they are minors in contact with children? No, absolutely no. And something must be done. Take nothing away from it social value of summer camps – continues Damascus – it’s fine for kids to teach the little ones and be together playing. But it’s one thing to be in a protected place, even if mandatory first aid training is needed everywhere, it’s one thing to organize trips and outings. It is not mandatory and you should not do it. I hope that this debate will open at the highest levels.”
