Is this child abuse? 😯

Nope. It’s a proven method to teach toddlers how to swim.

babies naturally know how to hold their breath. This is just early water survival training. Believe it or not this will save a kid's life if he or she accidentally falls into a pool.

Nope. This is the graduation test of training your toddler to float on their back. We did this with our little girl and it was fantastic to be comfortable that she was safe around water.

Nope. So many kids drown because they can’t swim and if this little guy falls in, he’s much more likely to survive.

That's how I learned to swim. My dad threw me in the deep end 🤣

no it shows them what to do in water. it how people who were raised near the ocean raised their kids

dude just got done swimming for 9 months straight - he's a pro

No! It’s how me and all my siblings were taught. Survival skills are in all of us and this is how you find it

That’s wild because the kid could easily aspirate water into their lungs

People call it ISR in my area.
