A woman who accompanied her three-year-old son in a swimming lesson was allegedly told by staff to put on one of the swim school's t-shirts to cover up her one-piece swimsuit, as other parents might complain.
The swim school in question, Happy Fish Swim School, has since clarified that all parents are encouraged to wear t-shirts in order to facilitate their children's learning process.
The school has apologised for the staff member's behaviour.

In an email reply, Linda voiced her disapproval with the way that the swim school handled the situation.
"I am there to teach my son to swim, not to seduce other people’s husband," she wrote.
She added that Happy Fish should teach their staff how to respond to such complaints, saying:
"Should their husband could not control their roving eyes, perhaps the husband should be out of bound of the premise.
I assume those family do not go to hotel pools, public pools and beaches. If they do, I can assume how busy the wives are to go around telling people to cover up because their husband is present."

protect men and their roving eyes, Singapore should seriously consider
banning one piece swimsuit for the safety of men and their uncomfortable
wives. One piece swim suit is just too revealing. How, Shanmugam?
Now
what other dresses should also be banned for being too revealing? Sari?
Cheongsam with high splits? What about tight fitting jogging pants and
tops?

Sensible people would see the stupidity of this issue. A few uptight people wanting to set the agenda for the majority.
First time heard of people being barred from wearing a swim suit at a swimming pool!
What kind of mentality is that?
This is the Year 2021, not Victorian period man!
