[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The leading cause of death for teens and pre-teens is “unintentional injury.” Namely motor vehicle accidents and drowning. Swimming is an important life skill and is worth overcoming discomfort. [/quote] If it’s for safety, they should make swimming mandatory at a much younger age - kindergarten or preschool. In many countries, swimming is part of the national education requirements for primary school. Middle school is too late. [/quote]
