Solihull: Six-year-old boy who fell into icy lake dies WWW.BBC.CO.UK The six-year-old becomes the fourth boy to die after being pulled from the water in Solihull. I can't even begin to imagine the devastation of those poor families . Such a tragic waste of those young lives. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh_red 4,644 Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 I sat my 12 year old boy and 10 year old daughter down to tell them about this story . I went into extreme detail about what happens when you fall in about hypothermia , nothing to grip on to to get yourself out etc . I worry about him especially because its something him and his mates would do without thinking . I told him if his pals are going to do sonething like this its his job to stop them not join in . It would be the end of me if anything happened to him or his sister . Im all up up chilhood shenanigans but stuff like this is just heartbreaking 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Something about them immediately made me think not British. Come over on last boat, used to thick 'safe' ice in their own country and not heard or understood the recent news Quote Link to post Share on other sites
