This is the third week of swimming lesson, dd has had some before but with dh in th pool with her, she was put up a group last week after 2 weeks of assessment, so first week in new class
She loves swimming normally and has had to be reprimanded for fooling about (splashing to much etc) but is generally ok
I watch from a viewing gallery, i miss the first bit of lesson getting up there with ds in pram
DD i saw dd crying in lesson today after 15min in she continued to cry for five min while teacher forced her to participate. She has never cried in a lesson before ever. I tried getting teachers attention from gallery then went to poolside to take her out.
Teachers were very against me removing her, said it would make her play up every week. I said i wasnt paying for her to stand crying in the water and took her out.
Once dd was dressed and lesson finished i talked to her teacher who said dd was being stubborn and uncooperative (possible, dd can be like this) so they thought she should stay in
Dd says her teacher dunked her under (they do do this a bit at end of pool crossing but i didnt see it today) Teacher says she didnt, other teacher didnt either but i cant see how she can be sure.
Both teachers were cross i took her out
aibu?
