It was a beautiful June day on Long Island, and Crystal DeFraia was waiting for a technician to service her family's new in-ground pool, which she envisioned would be at the center of a fun-filled summer break. 

Before he arrived, she offered snacks to her daughter, Madison, 8, and her son, Charlie, 4. The boy picked his favorite drinkable yogurt, which he enjoyed slurping through a metal straw.
