[quote=Anonymous]Hi op, New poster here. My daughter was afraid of putting her head in, swim lessons somehow made this worse. She developed this huge anxiety over going to the lesson, it was a beginner level class with no pressure to put her face in, but for her it was a huge mental block. She did not enjoy it and would cry and beg not to go. So I started taking her to open swim 2 x a week and she could do what she wanted and she started relaxing. We discovered that a one month family pass to PG county pools is 37 dollars - this rate applies to pg and moco residents because the pools are operated by the national capital planning commission. We went multiple times a week for one month, by the end she was doing dog paddle, figured it out on her own. I know you said you're not interested on spending this kind of time at the pool but if kid doesn't want to get head wet, it will take repeated, no pressure, fun exposure to the pool. [/quote]
