People do need to read more before jumping to conclusions.

"paramedics arrived at Ross' Mirrett Island, Fla., home at 5:38 p.m. "

"And 34 minutes later, at 6:12 p.m., Ross tweeted again. "Please pray like never before, my 2 yr old fell in the pool."

So at this point he was being cared for, probably in an ambulance if not already the the hospital and her Mum tweets a short message asking people to PRAY for him. It probably took her 20 seconds from her phone while sitting in an ambulance or waiting area and feeling totally helpless.

Also, "Ross had asked her older son to turn off a hose inside the pool enclosure, and the gate behind him evidently did not close properly, said Barnett."

The pool did have an enclosure, and her other son left the gate open. She trusted her son to have closed it and therefore expected her 2 year old to be safe. I'm amazed how much controversy this has caused, it's pathetic and I imagine 95% of people didn't read any article about it and just ranted on. Poor woman.
