A little boy almost drowned in the leisure center after his dad left him in the toddler pool so he could ride the log sink.

A court hearing said that the old son was going to swim, but when he found the water slide in the sink, he left the child alone in the children\'s swimming pool.
I heard that the unnamed father forgot to bring his son\'s armband, which is \"necessary for him to swim \".
While his father was waiting in line for water skiing on last August, the boy walked from the toddler pool to the larger pool --

The duty caregiver was able to pull the boy out of the water, and before he recovered his consciousness and was taken to the emergency room, began CPR on him by the pool.
The father initially told police and his partner that he had just \"suddenly gone to the toilet\" at Breen Leisure Park in Somerset \".
But closed-circuit television in the leisure park shows that the child was left alone for \"a few minutes \"--

The father was also told that after saving his son\'s life, he would pay 200 to two swimmers for \"public recognition.

If you didn\'t do that, you wouldn\'t be here.
He added: \"There is no doubt that you are filled with guilt after this.
\"I admit that you pleaded guilty and it is not an act of child abuse.
Judge tikhurst concluded: \"You never dare to let him stay alone again . \"
