I'm trying to figure out how he justified this. Was it that he had to pay a couple of dollars for the swimming lessons? I honestly can't figure out why you'd deny this to your child.

I don't remember learning to swim, and my own kids were in the pool as soon as they had their 6-month vaccinations. Aussie kids grow up in water.
