Is it possible for an 8 year old to scuba dive?

Hello,
My son has only turned 8 and he loves being in the water and he has been wanting to dive for a long time. The snag is he was under age. Now I heard that children as young as 8 can take a kids course.
My worry is the safety of the child. Is this possible and are the depths strictly monitored?
I'm looking forward to some advice because if it's possible I will get him into the water!!!

Cheers.

Anne
