Tom: Not really, he's been even more of a jerk since his girlfriend broke up with him. Every time I try, he just makes me feel bad about something. I know he's upset, but he's just trying to make me feel to feel better about himself.
Sam: Sounds like he's swimming in a pool of his own piss and trying to drag you in.

Pool moms are moms at the pool, with or without their kids. You'll find them in the shallow end, perched on the side, or "graduated" to a lounge chair. They might be swim team moms, swim lesson moms, or free swim moms. Either way, they visit the pool to refill their cups and keep their kids engaged in a healthy activity. Swimming demands energy, and that means a better night of sleep and a happier child; what mother doesn't want that? Swimming is both a life skill and a lifelong skill, and once you know how, it opens countless possibilities for other sports, like surfing, sailing, and scuba diving. It's no wonder so many parents find themselves identifying with this role. Welcome to the club!
