y chlorine exposure, and they have an event such as a birthday party that they really want to attend, discuss it with your child's doctor to find out the best way to manage the exposure.

Bernard said that if you have a backyard pool, you should use as little chlorine as you can to safely disinfect the pool. He said that many people over chlorinate their pools to get clear blue water. But, he said, "chlorine is a disinfectant, not a cleaning agent."
