I've never been able to swim - because neither of my parents could they never taught me
When I became a dad I got both of my kids enrolled in swimming lessons. Both of them earned their 2km swimming badges when they were 9.
If I'm ever on a boat that goes down, hopefully they'll be able to save their old dad.
