Wow. I spent a lot of time on the river when I was a kid. This poor family! It is so sad, but we used to see lots of people along the river who had trouble. I don't know about this family, but many people (when I was a kid) were not strong swimmers. As a 10-year old, I recall jumping into the water to save an adult who was a weak swimmer. Besides, rivers often change. They are difficult to read...sometimes they are lazy...other times they will sweep away an unsuspecting swimmer.
In any case, you have to feel awful for the family. Nobody should have to go through this.
