[quote=Anonymous]My kids couldn't tie their shoes at 10 either. We moved from overseas where the kids all had nannies (even at school there were nannies to help with things like that! Think very wealthy mideast country). They couldn't ride bikes either. So we did boot camp. One morning, I said you will sit down and tie your shoes. It turned out that they were also embarrassed that they couldn't tie their own shoes. It took ages to learn. They didn't get it right that first weekend. But 3 weekends in, they could definitely tie their shoes. Bike riding was easier. Turns out I'm better at teaching bike riding than shoe tying. [/quote]
