RIP young girl.

Swimming lessons should be taught at early age. Both my children took swimming lessons and both of my houses had pools with proper fence around them. I learned at a early age at the local pool. Even my high school had a indoor pool. It was my first class in the morning in February. ..brrr. And a all male class it was a custom to not wear bathing suits. The girls use to giggle looking under the door from their dressing room. No way you could have that custom these days.
