[quote=Anonymous]In short, yes I would force swim lesson. While I wouldn’t physically force him to it, I would bring him to the pool, but not allow floaties, other than what the instructor. Bring him to open swim with a friend that can swim. Again, don’t force him in, but don’t allow use of the floatie beyond a pool noodle. There is an age at which if kids can’t swim, they become really scared of the water and it is very prohibitive to learning to swim. If he happily gets in the water now, roll with It but keep firm on the conditions of what he can use in the water [/quote]
