The Garden Hose

Scientist have conducted an experiment and determined parents should not let their children drink out of a water hose. There seems to be chemicals in the hose and bacteria that can be on the end of the hose where the child would put their mouth.

Really?

I'm wondering if these same scientist have ever swabbed a public drinking fountain?? It might be a little more nasty there rather than the end of a garden hose.

I guess my parents were negligent letting my brothers and I drink from the garden hose.

We also played on a swing set that had lead-base paint, rode our bicycles with no hands, climbed trees, and rode a motorcycle without a helmet!

Wow! Life was sure different back then, but so much easier!
