DS(7) LOVES swimming. So much so that we are always at the pool and he has loads of lessons a week (3 to 5, usually 3 or 4)). It's a small, local pool, so I've got on friendly terms with most of the staff - in a kind of smile and say hello way, not anything more, but they r all really nice.
Today I bought DS for his regular hour lesson but the receptionist made a comment along the lines that it was mean to make him go today, especially for a long lesson, when he's tired and it's hot
DS loves swimming, and I don't feel mean taking him. He enjoys it, and when he's tired and hot there is nothing he'd rather do.
On our way in, as we went past the reception desk, I did ask him if he was ok as he has a cold, and if he wanted to swim today. He wasnt as enthusiastic as normal, so I wonder if she took that as a sign he didn't want to go? I know him well, and he'd say if he didn't want to go (quite rare! He always wants to go!)! I'm watching him now and he's been smiling through the whole lesson, jumping up and down and generally having a blast! I know that after his lesson he'll be on a high and in a great mood as he will have had a great time!
Aibu to feel a bit miffed about the receptionists comment? and like maybe other staff are also judging me and feeling like I force him to go?
