[quote=Anonymous]Oh I can so relate. I'm an adult with an odd fear of putting my head under water. It's all completely anxiety related. I can do showers and splashes but if I put her dunder water when swimming I get super anxious, take a long full of water and it's not good. I can still swim breaststroke though and float well. In MoCo there are good 1:1 teachers. I'd look for something on the weekends where you can take him. Talk to the teacher ahead of time, and maybe start with swimming that doesn't include head under water to get him comfortable. Separately work on the anxiety. Since if he has issues with kids splashing etc he'll never have that much fun in a pool or ocean anyway. [/quote]
