Mommy or daddy does everything for them and then they don't know how to do things for themselves.

I don't know if this was the same everywhere, but I remember learning to tie my shoe in Kindergarten. The teacher would bring out a fake shoe and we would all learn to tie it together. Now, they don't do that in school and so it's up to me to teach my child and quite frankly, I really don't know what to say or do and I get impatient waiting for them to do it, that I do it for them.Brittany Vantreasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07031889863481625710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177319937053720737.post-10503682148872257562018-10-18T03:24:18.524-05:002018-10-18T03:24:18.524-05:00I am always late.

Sorry if that gives you no hope. :) I do wish that I had pushed them more toward independence though.Kendra Davisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177319937053720737.post-73721277920802156812018-10-05T15:17:37.785-05:002018-10-05T15:17:37.785-05:00Thanks!

Also, it would be nice to offer them tips and advice on how to dress up effectively and on time.

In fact, continually showing up late to professional meetings, social outings, and random obligations may be correlated with traits of successful people.Monidipahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03086671878756747725noreply@blogger.com
