RE: 3 Life Skills A Lot Of Children Are Not Being Taught

in #parenting7 years ago (edited)

I would add one skill to list that I am glad my mother taught me... Sewing by hand. It came in handy sewing all my epaulets and insignias on my uniforms... Now it comes in handy sewing the crotches on pants :-)

Sort:  

@jasonbu, I should have put down sewing by hand. I guess I didn't because it was not a life skill that was taught to me. Isn't amazing how we emphasize the things that we were taught to value?

Many times I have been in need of someone with your sewing skills. I am blessed to know some wonderful people that replace buttons and sew up holes.
