I have never seen a pool pump underwater inside a pool. If I ever do I will call the local electrical inspector.

I'm sure the precautions that come with a sump pump (the thing we never read) will say don't get in the water with one.

GFCIs are great, but I would not trust the life of a child to one. That's like not using a seat belt because the air bag will catch me.
