I won't go into any details because I don't know who might be reading this, but after my son's first day of USS he does not want to go back. He hadn't been in the water in 6 weeks (summer rec)and worked so hard (swam over 500 yards!) and did some of the best kicking (compared to the other kids with fins!).
I won't make him go back, but we now need to find a way to get him feeling good about what he HAS accomplished in swimming.
Anybody else, swimmers themselves for a long time, teach their own children to swim? We originally didn't want to, but we are now convinced that that is the best thing for our son. Help please :)

I swam rec until I was 13. Stopped.....and didn't return until junior college (All American) , went onto Cal State Chico (Div II Champinships) to swim and stopped ......coached swimming and have been back in the pool for a year .Working hard and loving it. So, knowing you and what a great mom you are (I do know Karen from Jr coll and Chico) he will return to the pool all in good time.
