Nail on the head.

I'm mostly sure I've been to that exact resort a couple years ago. The article shows one sign. I can confirm that there is abundant warning signage as well as a verbal warning upon check in. In fact, I have a picture of myself being a jackass; thigh-deep in the water with the warning sign in the foreground. I certainly have empathy for what the parents are going through but an amount of guilt is also appropriate.
