George asked whether age group swimmers are being bullied/pressured into swimming by parents, coaches and friends. Are they? Are parents living out their "unfulfilled dreams" through their young ones, as Geek suggested in another thread? Share your funniest/saddest story about overbearing swim parents or coaches.

My father was so into our family swimming he even travelled with me to the on the Marathon Swimming Circuit when I was in my thirties.
When we were kids he used to drive a load of club swimmers all over the province when we raced in the meets. He could only swim breaststroke and sidestroke. He had been a 6 day bike rider when he was younger.
