I shot this amazing video at my neighborhood fishing pond. I want to bring up this question...

With children visiting and playing near this pond frequently, I feel that an aerator may cause safety hazards for an unsuspecting child that may wonder onto the ice . Does anyone feel the same way? This aerator obviously weakens the ice on this pond. Should the neighborhood association turn off this aerator during winter months??
