So, if you, as an adult, build a pool that is known in the legal lexicon as an "attractive nusience" , you are not responsible, as an adult, to provide some sort of barrier to that attraction.
The barrier is my legal deed to the land. I have no obligation to protect the pool from unwanted or unsolicited use or invasion unless I so seek to do such. A responsible thing to do would be to put markers around the pool, such as a rope fence or decorative fence, to deter stumbling in, or a barrier fence to prevent it, but that should not be dictated by law, certainly not federal law.

You do not, after all, have a fundemental right to a pool, do you?
I don't need a fundamental right to a pool, as I have a fundamental right to own land, and modify it as I deem fit within the respect of the rights of others.
