[quote=Anonymous] We lived in Florida when my child was born. He was in group swim lessons from the time he was 15 months old to just past 2, when we switched to private lessons. They were only 15 minutes long, and for the first maybe 5 lessons, he screamed through the entire lesson. I had to hide around the corner so he would try to run over to me. Another mom told me, "Give it a month. You'll see the progress." Sure enough, a month later, I was the one watching lessons, telling the new moms to give it time as their child screamed blood murder. This swimming was for water safety, to get your self in and out of the pool, monkey walk around the sides, and jump in, and also swim enough to get to the sides. Sure enough, when we were on vacation in the Caribbean, my child fell into a pool when he was almost 3. All the adults jumped up, but my son had already popped up, turned himself around, and pulled himself out of the pool. [/quote]
