Your title caught my attention because DS(third grade) was told he's to take swimming lessons this March at the pool where he had a bad experience when he was four.

We have told his teacher about the incident he endured at that pool, but I am sure she doesn't really understand. I'm considering opting him out of the lessons since my husband and I are making slow progress with him at home during the summers. DS likes to be in control and I just know this is a wrong turn for his progress!

P.S. DS screamed like crazy on elevators. It really sucked trying to go to the mall when he was in a stroller!
