No kidding, told one of my fourth graders to tie his shoe about a month ago and he told me that he didn't know how and his mom always bought him shoes with velcro. Since then he now can tie them with 90% accuracy. I've noticed about 25% of the girls in Wreck league, 4-6th just tuck the laces inside the shoe with out bothering to tie them. Its getting to be one of the first things I look for when the kids are warming up at that level. I tell them to tie their shoes.
