[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][/b]We swam because it was cheap and easy. [b]The high school pool offered swim lessons for $5/session in the 90s and free swim was $.25. My mom had us there daily with all the neighborhood kids. My own kid has a million other options. I made sure he swam well enough to not drown, but swimming for fun is not something he’s ever had interest in.[/quote] This. Plus I grew up in Florida where learning to swim at a young age was a safety issue. My kids are strong swimmers but it has not been cheap or easy. It’s because we prioritized it and spent thousands on swim lessons. Many of our peers have different priorities. I don’t judge them for it. [/quote]
