A lot of very young people type and text rapidly. They may not spell well (too much auto-correct) or construct beautiful sentences, but their fingers can move pretty fast.

Fine motor skills? I say they have them.
Experience in manipulating a pencil? It may be an unlearned skill for many. Teach them how. That’s the job, I think.

Under twos?

I was wondering what 2 YOs and under were doing with these things, eating them?

I'm glad I'm too old for all this nonsense.

There are things FAR worse than crappy fine motor skills and penmanship.

I was shopping for a spotting scope online today and came across a new brand "Athlon Optics." Their description included this beaut:

Argon Purging uses the inertia gas with bigger size molecules to purge any moisture out of the tube giving you better waterproofing and thermal stability.

"Inertia Gas" -- LOL. I guess that gas is slow to get out of bed in the morning. After it's first cup of coffee, it's raring to go and get to work!

Millennial copy writers just don't do their work very well.
