Watching my kids take swim lessons I am super impressed how they KNOW how to teach. They have a slow steady progression of techniques that build on eachother. Same with gymnastics. Build strength, technique and confidence. No need to terrify kids.

In a similar vein, the social emotional learning they are teaching kids is great.

I got lessons as soon as feasible due to this. My grandpa did this to my mom and now even in her 60s she can't go past her waist without visibly panicking.

I love how genx think shit like this is a flex. It’s not. It’s called child abuse.
