This does not make me a failure, in fact, I am very proud of that swim. Thou shalt not expect thy child to become an Olympian. There are over 300,000 athletes who swim. There are only 52 spots available for the Olympic Team every four years. Your child's odds of becoming an Olympian are 1 in about 5,000.
Swimming is much more than just the Olympics.
Ask your coach why they coach. Most Olympians will tell you that these intangibles far outweigh any medal they may have won. Swimming builds good people and you should be happy that your child wants to participate.
