If the choice is between swimming out and waiting months for the Monsoon season to end then it wouldn’t have to be rudimentary training. If they spent a week giving daily scuba diving lessons to them they’s still be way ahead of the alternative. Being teenage boys I’d bet they’d be up for it.
Waiting until October for the Monsoon to stop is a bad idea because between now and then, the water in that cave is sure to rise and possibly flood the area where the boys are now.
They need a better plan than just waiting for the Monsoon to end in October.
Swimming in that cave would be very dangerous I think.
Where did you learn to operate a rebreather?

Of course they would——that’s why ONLY informed adults should be involved in any decision making.
This is a horrifying situation.
