[quote=Anonymous]I have that age gap among my three kids and I hated the pool too. Still do. That said, it was fabulous for kids, who are now in HS, college and grad school. They all became excellent swimmers (oldest does triathlons now) and 2 of 3 were lifeguards. My suggestion would be try to figure out a way to get your 8 y.o. to the pool without you and the little ones. If your DH is at work and can't do it, then hire a sitter (lifeguards always want to make more $) or tag team with parent(s) of your kid's friends. Or, if you actually like the pool, hire the sitter to stay home with the little ones. [/quote]
