[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- I actually don't really care about #1 or #2, it's more that I hear a lot of complaints about it from other parents- as for #2, my DC finds it creepy when the parent just sits there and watches the whole entire time

My kid will complain about practice because he moved up to a harder group. He also volunteers to go to extra practices on a weekly basis.  So, your kid might hear my kid complain about not wanting to be at practice...yet the same kid is electing to go to additional practices and will say 3-4 times a week he's so glad he practices as much as he does.[/quote]

Complaining about practice is one thing - saying you hate to swim and don't want to do it is another.  My kids hear this from their friends.  And some will throw their parents under the bus - my mom and dad make me do this, I don't want to do it.  These kids won't swim meets and half ass it in the lane.  They are easy to spot.[/quote]

We stopped all swim meets.  Its not safe to have that many kids and adults unmasked and all those willing are generally in person school and no other precautions and it puts families being cautious at risk.  There are lots of reasons why kids aren't doing meets.  [/quote]

Seriously?  There has not been a single outbreak at any swim meet in this area.  Swim has been one of the safest sports.[/quote]
