i'm curious about something

okay so we load up the car and our stuff, pick up Lindsey's friend and head to the pool on this fabulous gorgeous day...an hour into it, the lifeguards blow the whistle ten minutes before the scheduled hourly break. "Huh?" we all say....oh, someone threw up in the pool...or their diaper exploded...those are the two stories we heard as we were told the pool would have to close for a chemical treatment that has a 6 hour cycle...So here is my question, this pool is specifically for toddlers and those just learning how to swim. Needless to say, there are alot of swim diapers in this pool which are only intended to protect against "number 2"...so I am sure there is lots of Number 1 in there...Why is that ok??? Isn't pee pee kind of gross,too?

I rationalize it by saying that urine is sterile, and while still gross, not as grody as swimming in poopy! My dad calls the baby pool the toilet.
