[quote=Anonymous]My son just turner 7 and I find myself watching him a lot less closely than I used to (will talk to friends, look at a magazine, go to a different area of the pool with little sibling, and look up to check on big brother every once in a while). He can swim the length of the pool okay, but I don't completely trust him not to exhaust himself and freak out. I watch a lot more closely when the pool is crowded, he's been swimming in deep water for a long time, or he's playing with older kids. My 5 year old is a decent swimmer for his age, but I watch him much more closely. Just last week I jumped in to "rescue" him when, after 30 minutes of diving for toys in deep water he apparently "forgot" how to swim to the wall and started freaking out.[/quote]
