Once all of the spots have formed scabs they are no longer contagious. Mind you, do you really want every stranger you see berating you and calling you a bad parent. Just because you think it's okay doesn't mean everybody else will. When it comes to parenting, everybody's a busybody.

No, cause the child shouldn't be near anyone with chicken pox unless it's your own pool at home, then yes.

NO.keep children with the chicken pox calm, cool and dry, as getting warm and sweaty will make the itching worse.

I wouldn't let them because chick pox spreads. You might risk other children's health who hasn't had it by letting your child swim in a pool with them. I guess if it's a small pool in your backyard and only that child and/or people who have had it are in, then it might be okay.

NO!!!!
well, i guess they COULD, if you dont care about the other people in the pool.
infact, i would rather get them as a child then an adult, when they can be alot worse, and are in fact ALOT more dangerous.
when you are a child, they are mearly a nousiance, but as an adult, they can keep you out of work at best, and kill you at worst. (unless you scratch them, and living with the scars is worse than death for you..)
but, i would suggest keeping him out of the pool for a while.
just spray her with a hose if they really want to cool off.
and let the other mothers know that your child is infected, and that it actually is best for their children to get them now, and be immune as adults.

It would actually be good to go swimming in the ocean. The salt water is good for the skin, but keep the kid away from other kids. The salt water will help the skin heal and keep from scaring.

yes but it could make you itch and also you could get another person infected because chicken pox is air born
