Everyone says that when a baby reaches 6 months old, if you want him/her to be a swimmer, to dunk him into the water. But they don’t tell you exactly how. Do you do it slow motion, do you push her head into the water and pull it out within the second, do you throw her in then dive in for her, do you carefully and moderately dunk her and count to three……get what I mean?

So when the time came, I didn’t do it. I didn’t DARE do it. I didn’t know how and I didn’t find out.

Darn.

Because at 3.5 years old today, Tee still can’t swim. She loves water and doesn’t mind being splashed at, can swim play water for three hours straight if we allowed it, but she just refuses to try putting her head under water. She will do it for ONE second or perhaps blow bubbles in the water for a few seconds but this has been happening for the last year. WITHOUT ANY PROGRESS. *sigh*

I really wished I’d dunked her. I don’t even care how now. I used to be a swimmer, now my daughter can’t swim. How can that be? *sigh* Must be Daddy’s genes.

I think that it is really important that she learns how to swim. What shall I do?
