[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Mine are 5 & 7, and can both dive and swim across the pool and granted I swam year round for 10 years but no one else I know with kids similar ages can do this yet. And pools are so shallow! Our country club does has a deep end with diving boards (as did mine in the 90s) but are kids just more wary of water now? I feel like it’s not only a safety thing knowing how to swim well…. But it’s also summer fun! You used to get teased if you couldn’t dive by the time you were 7 or 8. [/quote] I’m not understanding this. Are you saying your kids are not as adept at swimming than you were? Or are you talking about other kids? What pools are so shallow? And they have write on the side how deep the pools are. Find a deeper pool if you have a problem with shallow pools. [/quote]
