A very sad situation for our children \ud83d\ude41&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Daily living skills like opening a jar, cleaning after yourself, shoe laces, even holding a pencil are slowly diminishing in children that are very quickly becoming the next generation of adults.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Jo, you are brilliant!
