I don’t quite understand how these kids all 11 or under ) were on a lake without an adult in any weather - never mind freezing conditions

The lady who announced it this morning only barely managed to hold back the tears as she was relaying the story. Very, very sad indeed.

I didn't hear anything about a boat, they were on the frozen lake as I understand?

They are believed to have fallen into the water after playing on ice in Babbs Mill Park, Kingshurst. They were taken to two hospitals in Birmingham.
West Midlands Ambulance Service said the children had been in cardiac arrest when they were rescued, but offered no further update on their condition. The Met Office has warned of the risks of ice as the UK faces a cold spell. During a news conference on Sunday evening, West Midlands fire chief Richard Stanton said crews were told on arrival that up to six people had been in the lake.

But none of that detracts from the tragedy of this case anyhow. Parents can’t supervise kids over a certain age 100% of the time, especially when they’ve sort of demonstrated they can be trusted to go off for a bit at least some of the time. I don’t know many parents who accompany their 11-year-olds to play.

Under normal circumstances you’d trust someone on the brink of being in high-school to look out for all of them but age isn’t the thing to make an issue here. It’s very sad all-’round so for a second it doesn’t matter how-old they were.

Such a needless loss of life but the message is still not getting through about the danger’s of water and frozen water let’s not forget all those that died in the summer from going into water in extreme heat.
