Some people can't swim, that s why they're scared of it. Water is powerful also, they might drown. Have yo ever seen the Titanic? Well that might be a good reason why they may be scared of water. Water has so much force. They might be scared of a lake, pond, or ocean, because of the creatures in it. That's different for me, I LOVE WATER! my fave sport is swiming, and I really don't know why you shouldn't give it a chance. Although, I do have some fears, because when I was about 8 or 9 a boy tried to drown me. Of course I had to kick him in places where it really hurt, but you're fighting for your life here! But still, I have to overcome these fears, and always stay safe. If you are surfing, always get a surfboard with stripes on the bottom, cuz sharks will think that it is a poisonous creature. And always, always, stay safe, no matter what! and never try ridiculous things in the water to impress people. You never know what could happen. Water is mysterious, and it could kill you.

If they don't feel confident in the water, then that leads to fear. I am OK in the water and I'm not scared to go in it. What scares me is when I can't feel the bottom underneath my feet. It freaks me out! I just need that security of having my feet touch the bottom. And yes, I know how to swim. It's just something about it and I don't know why I have it.

Some people are scared of water. I don't blame the little kids but, I blame some adults that are actually scared of it (hahaha).
I think they are scared of drowning and falling.
