I grew up swimming and even did the life guard courses and good ole Bob Bahan. When I was young I swam lakes, rivers, oceans you name it. I have two little ones that both love to swim and we do a lot of it. My 5 year old has been in lessons and will sign up again but my 3 year old has not.
My sister in law has a huge fear of swimming. She will go into a shallow end of a pool and stand there but she won't go anywhere near natural water. She completely freaks out. I have tried to help/teach but it is tough.
