To learn more about infant survival swim classes, check out www.swimkidsofgeorgia.com/ - the place where our kids learned how to swim (and survive in the water).
Perhaps the baby wasn't left around the water. Children are quick, and when there is a full household it's hard to keep your eyes on every child, every second. The life long reward of these survival skills outweighs the discomfort the child faces for just a short time, a time they won't even remember.
You are all a piece of shit.. Stand by your child and take care of them. Stop this shit, STOP it!!! Babys should not be alone, I hatte to see what you are doing
I got two kids who love swimming. Im not against ISR at all if you believe in it 👍 but for me we just taught them when they were a bit older like around 5/6 years old. Before that we were just extra careful around pools or any other body of water.
@@MichaelKummer We tried ISR with the elder one for 2/3 classes but I guess it wasnt for us so we waited till he was 5 and the same went with the younger one. But I support ISR but for us, with our busy schedule and the excessive crying we didnt continue. But if ever we have another child Id want us to try ISR again
She's so cute. Good parents potentially saving her life by teaching her to float. Some of these comments here are disturbing to me. She's a tiny little girl and yet some of u enjoy watching her struggle in the water. Look inwards at who u are. Be a better person and not evil.
1:30 Wish the sound was on here 😆😆😆😆 she did everything with all her strength trying not to die 😆😆😆 so funny how she wiggles underwater 😂😂 glad she's white otherwise I'd feel bad 😆😆
No kids were harmed in this video. The infant you saw is now eight years old and loves swimming and diving. So I doubt her infant survival classes had any negative impact on her.
I feel bad that I enjoy watching her whole body fight for her dear life 😆😆 her face says it all! 😆 full-on terror & panic😲 but so fun coz the baby's a stranger.. She's def gonna have nightmares about this! 100%
She is 8 years now, loves swimming (she is also very good at it) and never had a bad dream about it (that we know of). So I disagree with your assessment :)
It is painful to watch, the baby is crying but it's not cruel. I'm sure our little one wasn't pleased (hence the crying) but I can tell you that even seven years later she still (occasionally) cries like this if something doesn't go her way. Like when the Else dress we ordered was too big for her. ✌🏻 PS: She is back at swim classes after a 2-year break and absolutely loves it. So, evidently, the water didn't cause any trauma.
@@leelee-cp2mv Considering that all toddlers, teens and (young) adults use crying to express emotions from time to time (even the ones who never took swim classes at a young age), I'm relatively certain there is no correlation.
@@MichaelKummer It's ok. It is your choice. Learning swimming is good but it should be done in a suitable stage. I will never force my baby struggle in the water like this and he/she cannot say "I am tired.", "I am scared.", "I want to take a rest." or even "I don't want to do it anymore."
@@leelee-cp2mv Completely agree. These so-called "swimming lessons" are nothing but fear based. The baby is panicking, literally panicking to turn himself over!!! See minute 1:38. Why not just watch your kid around water like a responsible parent should so this "training" isn't a back up?? I taught my kids how to survive in water in many difficult situations and I did it out of love and patience, not terrifying them!
Drowning is cruel traumatizing and dangerous! Children cry when you put them in the car seat yet you put them in anyway because it is safe. No parent likes to watch these babies cry but they are learning some thing that is vital. No parent can watch their child 24 seven because you have to eat you have to prepare meals etc. and too many children have gotten away and drowned within seconds except these babies learn the life-saving skill of floating on their back until help comes
Every time I'm unhappy & angry at my relatives.. I watch this kid's struggle & makes me feel good about my relatives.. Her parents paid money to put her in this pool like this!! 😆😆
Every time I hear about a child drowning in a pool, I feel terribly sorry for the child (and its parents) and wish these parents had known about infant survival swimming. It might have prevented the accident from happening.
@@MichaelKummer All kidding aside, especially if you have a pool at home, this method could save her life.. It could very well be an infant's first self-defense lesson. "Better be safe than sorry" 👍👍👍👍
2 children have died after graduating this course. I don’t think a child always remembers to float on their back even they are alone and panicked, crying!!!
I'm sorry I think this is great a little crying for a little bit saving them selves and learning how to swim is a hell of a lot better then finding them blue and life less in the bottom of a pool take it from some one who knows!!!!!
Totally agreed! The baby in the video is now seven years old and she decided to join the local swim team because she still loves being in and under the water.
I just do not like this, not all children will acclimate to the water, some are so frightened, we see this in this short video, and others takes to the water. I think its' unnecessary and mean for some of these tiny ones.
It’s not cruel. Babies have a reflex to hold their breath under water when they swim. They don’t ingest any water, it helps them develop motor skills and it teaches them life saving skills and teaches them to not fear the water at a young age. It’s recommended to teach your babies to swim as an infant. This is with a trained professional, it’s not cruel at all. It actually does nothing but benefit the baby for the reasons I listed. I know it can look scary at first and it can be hard to watch, but it helps your baby develop motor skills and body strength and it could save your child’s life. They’re in good hands.
If you don't want your child to drown in a pool, here's a good idea : just keep an eye on her, all the time, and don't own a pool until she's older and able to swim after being taught to do it in a way that did not terrify her. Its funny how people never care about the emotions babies can feel, only because they cannot use words to express them.
@@juliaevans2375 what happens when your baby is with the babysitter? Or with the grandparents? Or aunts uncles and cousins? This isn’t a swimming lesson it’s teaching survival if and when they fall into water & all professionals will tell u to keep an eye on your child despite having isr lessons. I understand and it’s hard to see kids struggle at first but I’d rather my child learn to not drown rather than to drown...as parents we cannot always be around our children 24/7 365 especially if you live apart from the child’s mother or father. Unless you’re the type of person who doesn’t let anyone else watch their children this is a good option for parents. Perhaps not for your household.
@@MichaelKummer This is ridiculous. How and when is an INFANT who can not even crawl, much less walk, end up in a swimming pool?? Kinda reminds me of the videos of moms walking in on their 1 or 2 year old who has made a mess in the kitchen, smeared peanut butter all over their room, ointment all over their sibling, etc...WHY were they unsupervised long enough to be able to do that??!! I am all for survival training when they are toddlers but an infant (who should be supervised) being held under water serves no purpose but to risk their lives or their health. Ever hear of dry drowning??
