[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11 or 12 is a good age for this type of independence.[/quote] +1 Mine started at 11[/quote] Its not really independence because you are relying on others to supervise them.[/quote] I don’t swim in the backyard pool alone... Someone else is present, because weird happenstance could mean I accidentally drown. The pool employs life guards as the last line of defense. Children who are too young and/or can’t swim have parents or caregivers with them. Life guards are there whether an unaccompanied child comes or not. And during adult swim, life guards don’t take a break, so they even watch when there are no kids swimming.[/quote]
