907 P.2d 43 (1995)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over parental immunity. Plaintiff, conservator of
a minor's estate, sought review of an order that affirmed an order granting summary judgment
in favor of Defendant, minor's mother, on grounds that the doctrine of parental immunity
barred P's action to recover damages based on D's alleged negligent supervision of the minor.
FACTS: While D, the mother, was watching her 2.5-year-old swimming the phone rang. D went
inside to answer it and when she looked out she found her son at the bottom of the pool. P
suffered severe brain damage because of the lack of oxygen. P has no motor skills and had
not voluntary movement. The father, sued D, the mother to recover from a liability insurance
policy. The case was dismissed and the court of appeals affirmed based on the doctrine of
