Would you swim with sharks?
Parents are under fire for allowing their five-year-old daughter to swim with sharks in the Bahamas after their vacation video went viral. While the sharks were not varieties that are usually aggressive and the girl was with an instructor the entire time, many people believe that it was reckless to put their daughter in that situation.
What do you think? Were the parents being careless?

I’ve swam with tiger sharks before. They are only as dangerous as the amount you provoke them.
Regarding this, It’s their child, do what they decide is right. What one person sees as being wrong, may seem natural to another. My parents let me go swimming in the great barrier reef when I was 8, and again when I was 13, which is an area with sharks, and other dangerous aquatic life. Big effin deal. There was an instructor.. so.. safe as can be.
