[quote=Anonymous]Just keep trying. Try some new instructors (sometimes kids click with one and not another), more lessons during the year, again next summer. Does your kid have a friend who can swim and show them some moves? (That can also help.) Also depends on the reason - Is your kid scared of the water or losing control? It all finally clicked for my almost 8 yo this summer - she was on the swim preteam for 2 previous summers, we did a fair number of lessons, there was a lot of crying, one private instructor dropped us 2 years ago because she didn't cooperate etc. In other words, it's been quite a process. Don't give up![/quote]
