[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This seems like an uncommon sentiment but I want my kids to be strong swimmers and know how to properly swim strokes. I don't really think doggie paddling is actual swimming. It's just one of those life skills we think is important because if they don't learn now they likely never will. (My husband and I both took years of lessons, were lifeguards and he is in the Coast Guard - we take water safety seriously. I realize we probably aren't the norm.)[/quote] +1 though no Coast Guard - but lifeguard/Water Safety Instructor. I make them do swim team once they know how to swim so that they can then become competent and strong swimmers. [/quote]
