"Let him go."

Those were my exact words to my supervisor who was lifeguarding this morning as we watched a two-year old boy let go of the pool wall and step off the tot dock into water over his head.  Said child is in his second session of lessons and his listening skills have yet to be employed.  Mother has never noticed.  She is always too busy chatting with her friends.  So he stepped off in to water over his head . . . and I rescued him shortly there after and he held on to the wall for the rest of the day.  

Lesson learned.
