How can a teenager not know how to swim also? cant you just kick your legs and flap your arms?
I'm guessing that it's in a rural area (I could be 100% wrong). But I would think that there are no (or very limited) facilities/opportunities where kids can learn to swim. The elders didn't know how to swim either, so it probably isn't a priority down there.
Just a horrible story.
