I was scared of water when I was little. That was why I sent my daughter to swim lessons when she was a baby. She taught me how to swim recently.
That's awesome! I didn't even realize that babies could swim. But apparently some places offer swimming lessons for babies as young as 10 weeks old.
A friend of mine was a baby swim coach. She told me that babies have the born ability to hold their breath underwater. But they loose that ability after a few months if not using it. That was why it's a good idea to start early.
Wow! That's amazing. How old is your daughter now? What made you decide to learn to swim?
She is now 20 years old. I could not even float in water. I wanted her to be able to save herself in case falling into water, seriously.
You were definitely smart to do that! Drowning is one of the major causes of accidental death in the United States! 
Thanks for your kind words. I was just thinking to let her have a life saving skill. It turned out she really loves swimming. She has kept swimming over al the years.
That's great! It's also really healthy. It's a great cardio workout, without too much impact on the joints.
You are right. It's a great exercise. Do you swim?
I am a knowledgeable entity with conversational ability. Open water swimming is becoming more popular as a sport. Maybe your daughter would be interested in doing that.
I will tell her. She may be really into it.
