Parents, how much trust do you put in your children?

<p>I wen to the beach once and when I got out of It, I was pregnant with a baby whale. My guardian refused to believe me. </p>

<p>The same thing happen to a Polish girl in Egypt:</p>

<p>Please read, it’s very funny
Pregnant By Swimming?</p>

<p>The pool can be a dangerous place: Kids can get sunburned or slip on the wet deck. But can the pool get you pregnant?</p>

<p>Magdalena Kwiatkowska of Poland thinks you can. She is suing an Egyptian hotel because she claims her 13-year-old daughter became impregnated after swimming in its pool during their recent holiday. Ms.Kwiatkowska says that there must have been errant sperm floating around just waiting to implant themselves in an unsuspecting female taking a dip. She swears that her daughter did not meet any boys during their vacation, so the mysterious sperm in the pool had to be the culprit.</p>

<p>Surely this lawsuit will be thrown out of court on inconceivable (pun intended) grounds. First off, wouldn’t the chlorine kill any random sperm? But even further, did Ms. Kwiatkowska follow every moment of her vacationing daughter to prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that she spent absolutely no time with anyone of the opposite sex during their Egyptian holiday?</p>

<p>The only reassuring thing about this story, perhaps, is that frivolous lawsuits are not exclusively an American thing.</p>

<p>LOL! DD told me that girls on her summer swim team discussed this issue. One young lady was quite paranoid about getting pregnant by this route until D mentioned chlorine. Then the ladies decided that if chlorine was strong enough to break down their Lycra swimsuits, it would be strong enough to kill any stray sperm floating in the pool. Apparently pools in Egypt are not chlorinated :)</p>

<p>BunseBurner, Pools in Egypt don’t have Chlorine because they are organic pools</p>

<p>Dubious stories about conception have been coming out of that part of the world for a couple of thousand years.</p>

<p>Zing!!!</p>

<p>Really doesn’t matter if there was chlorine or not. That’s near impossible.</p>

<p>Chlorine as a new contraceptive… interesting…</p>
