SJ When I read your post about what happened in the pool I was so angry at the guy that I almost threw something at the computer! People like him drive me mad!
Has he not seen the campaign that Australian Swim Coach, Lawrie Lawrance has trying to encourage parents to introduce their kids to water as young as possible? Doing things like that gets them used to the water and helps their development because they can learn to swim much younger. I saw a thing on Sunrise the other day with kids from 2 weeks old up to 4 years old in their swimming lessons in the pool. The 2 year old were doggy paddling across the pool with no floaties or parents to help them, they were just jumping in and swiming to the other side unaided! How great is that...those kids probably started swimming lessons when they were babies and now they can swim on their own at 2 years old!
I'm hoping to start Jazz in swimming lessons in the next few weeks. She loves water and we play in the bath. She loves it when I pour a cup of water over her head.
Keep going to the pool SJ, it's good for both of you. I just hope you never see the stupid man again!
