Why isn’t my child able to perform simple motor tasks?
As children age, their motor skills begin to develop so they can perform more intricate tasks, such as picking up a spoon and feeding themselves. There are literally hundreds of reasons why some children aren’t able to perform motor skills at a young age. Often, the problem is simply a type of developmental delay, meaning something caused the child to develop his or her senses a little slower than others. Many times they grow out of it and other times therapy will help them through it.
