Taken in part from the article:
– of the approximately 750 children who will drown next year, about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adult. In ten percent of those drownings, the adult will actually watch them do it, having no idea it is happening (source: CDC).
According to the article, a child drowning does not shout, or wave their arms, or frantically splash the water. It's not a vision from JAWS, it's "deceptively quiet".
