[quote=Anonymous]I think most parents believe math is covered and paid for in school. Swimming is not. Parents are already paying taxes for their children to learn math or are actually paying a private school to teach them. Many also hire tutors or do belong to these competition math groups. This obsession with math beyond traditional school teaching (competitions etc) is a recent phenomenon. Getting along with others is something all children should learn. Swimming is a life safety skill. Not all children need to be extremely quick at math. They just need to understand it.[/quote]
