[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I agree swimming is a life skill. I was swimming for years already by that age. He has taken multiple swimming lessons and is taking them again now but JUST.CAN'T.SWIM. He sinks like a rock. His body is extraordinarily dense or something and he is not particularly athletic or coordinated. He's also afraid to relax enough to float. I'm really concerned for his safety.[/quote] OP again. He can't even tread water.[/quote] OP, call the Lab School pool and ask about private lessons after explaining exactly what the issue is. They have instructors who work with kids with all sorts of disabilities and special needs. I'm not saying your DS is in that category but he does need something more specialized. He has the ability to learn to swim he just needs someone with the skill to get him there.[/quote]
