Answer: in my lawn chair.

Explanation: a misplaced modifier, is a modifier in a sentence or in a paragraph that is placed in a position that might produce some kind of misunderstanding or just make the sentence to be unclear. In the given paragraph the misplaced modifier is "In my lawn chair" because in the sentence "I could not see the pool in my lawn chair" it seems that the pool is in the lawn chair, one way to correct this sentence would be "From my lawn chair, I could not see the pool."

"In reality, the pool was so crowded that I could not see the pool in my lawn chair." should be "<span>In reality, the pool was so crowded that I could not see the water from my lawn chair." or something similar.</span>

tiny-mole [99]
This sentence does not contain the parallel structure.

<span>My sisters always bicker over who gets to drive the car, wear the newest dress, and having the best boyfriend.

</span>Parallel structure<span>  or parallelism is defined as the repetition of a chosen grammatical form within a sentence.
</span>
In the above sentence the phrase that should be parallel are "drive the car", "wear the newest dres", and "having the best boyfriend". The usage is inconsistent and it creates confusion. 

The sentence using the correct parallel structure reads like this:

<span>My sisters always bicker over who gets to drive the car, wear the newest dress, and have the best boyfriend.
</span>
"having" is the present participle form of have. The term "have" is used to refer to a possession or belonging.
