[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My middle child will be 8 in less than three months but still needs help opening water bottles or any twist bottle. My oldest had this down before this age so I can’t tell if he’s average or if we’re behind in this skill. Popping cans came later for my other child but I don’t remember how old. [/quote] Sometime they are on tight and I have trouble. Why are you so impatient? Don't you need help with anything?[/quote] She’s not impatient, she’s observant and double checking that there’s nothing out of the ordinary going on, which every mother has done at some time or another.[/quote] OP asked is she is being impatient. Since the kid is not willfully refusing to open bottles, she is being impatient. Either wait for the kid to gain strength and dexterity or get her help with those skills.[/quote]
