If you read the thread, you would see that the father is a CERTIFIED instructor. The kid got a huge jump on the rest of his classmates when he started his cert class.
Ok, terd, I was saying if his father is a scuba instructor, I would think he would get certified, i wasnt making any insults or accusations towards either one of them. I was stating the way i felt about certs. I thought the boys father would think the same way, just different opinion. read my whole post next time.
First off, try staying on point and not turning it into personal attacks.....
You weren't making insults towards them but you are to me......
I did read your whole post......... you expressed an opinion without having accurate knowledge of the situation or circumstance....classic rookie mistake.... your retort reiterates this. I am hoping that you will come to an educated point in the near future, if possible, though.......
What you may not know about certs is that they cost money for an instructor also. This is probably ONE of the reasons he didn't do it right away. Another reason is some instructors would like their children to get a cert from someone else to make sure they are not bias..... Then again, it was also stated that his instructor's license wasn't active.......hummm..... that could be it also.........
You read the thread. Don't be afraid to ask questions before making an "opinion".
Try to stay on the topic and not get emotionally involved by taking it to a personal level....sometimes it is better to think then to "feel" as you expressed your opinion was based on. Just a though.
I wish you the best of luck with the remainder of your courses.
