In my country, it is a serious situation. I remember when I was little boy, my parent seldom purchased cloth from store for me, instead, my mother made cloth by hands for me. I also remember that my father went to repair our furniture and bicycles, and sometimes went to replace broken class of window. Nowadays, I can't find anyone who wears cloth making by hands. I can still find sewing machine in some families, but nobody use it. It is just a decoration of house. People usually go to store to purchase their favorite clothes. It’s harder and harder to find a shop to repair bicycles. Actually, less people ride bicycle, instead, more and more people driving. So, practical skills of living are really disappearing.
