My son, Dwayne Thompson, died from drowning in cold water. He was not aware of the meaning of the safety and hazard signs near the water and was unaware of the risk he was taking.

I think it's time that safety and hazard signs and their meanings are taught to children to prevent deaths like my son’s.
