You can usually look up how to fix your own clothes online. It's a good skill to have, should save you some money (and grief).

yeah, the poor family just needs to learn to sew! Pull themselves up by the shoelaces by golly!

Dude, I didn't say it would fix all their problems or even that I think they should do it. It's just a good skill for anyone to have, and it's a lot easier to learn with the internet around.
