    This one is amazing! Does this mean you didn’t grow up in Australia? Because I can’t fathom getting through childhood here without swimming. Even in Melbourne.

      I grew up here but my father was a lunatic so I wasn’t allowed to do anything growing up that wasn’t study. No friends till high school, no swimming, no school camp.

      Took a long time to get over it.

        Then what did you do while your class was in swimming lessons? That’s some next-level stuff to take your kid out of a class teaching an essential life skills. I didn’t even realise it was possible to opt-out of school swimming lessons.
