I second this, and also if they're not totally into it, you can't expect them to be ready for it. I know a lot of parents who would try to get their kid certified just so that they didn't have to pay someone to watch them while they were underwater...just drag the kid along. Or they're just a Clark Griswold type of parent who thinks their idea of fun is the same as everyone else's.
My cousin on the other hand who just turned 10 loves it. I took him to a friend who ran a Discover Scuba class and he likes to quiz me now on the gear and what its used for.
