Just watched yet another commercial advertising Zeba shoes and how you can now just slip your feet into laced up shoes.
I have heard a radio ad for shoes for children that, you don't have to "fight" with your children to put their shoes on, anymore.
My baby, now 32, grew up in the Velcro generation, learned from her best friend next door, that just learned to tie her shoes, taught her to tie hers, reducing my headache by much.
And then, there is my grandson, now 11. Watching him tie his shoes make me think that he will be well suited for a bomb squad. He is my lesson in life about patience, tolerance, and understanding.
