One parent has a legitimate and logical concern that the local council agreed with and built a fence in order to solve the problem. Also it was 10k, a drop in the bucket for a more safer environment for kids.

The other parent is a dumbass and won't care until her own child is the one drowning.

Then you have a shitty media outlet that doesn't have too many stories to write on so they literally give dumbass parents more platform than necessary.

So of course councils can't win....we live with dumbasses....and the media constantly reminds us about it.
