Yeah, we had one or two in our class who had to take the class again. I think fear was the major issue.
Our Pat is petrified about swimming. The only thing that encourages me is remembering that Bill was the same way when he was a little Cub, and now he’s a trained lifeguard.
I had a school friend from 5th grade to 7th grade, and she was deathly afraid of water. So afraid in fact that just being in more than a foot of it would trigger an epileptic seizure.
The main thing is to keep them calm and reassure them. Jeez. I’m sorry Patrick. Just go at your own pace. *HUG*
