Otterbox needs to make changes, this case fails

I've always loved and trusted Otterbox cases. Only ever used them on my iPhones, this was a first for an iPad. It's been a major disappointment. Needed a slim profile yet protective case for autistic toddler to have her communication apps and other things. The glass is protected from scratches by the screenprotector, but this case has a huge flaw that caused permanent damage to the side of her iPad Air. The long side has a flap that opens to allow a pen to connect to the charging spot and that flap does not stay on AT ALL. It had fallen off and when the iPad fell against a table edge, it now has a perma dent. Also, liquid gets in between the screen protector and glass super easily. If she spills water, juice etc it comes in right at the camera hole cut outs. Very unreliable case. The rubber on the back also bows and changed shape. If these issues were fixed, I otherwise like the case it's slim and her iPad fits in my bag without needing a separate bag for her iPad.

It’s great besides the fact the Apple Pencil accommodations leave the screen exposed even when the protective cover is on. I’m just using it for class but in the workplace I would consider this a deal breaker. My last iPad otterbox was of higher quality and the kickstand felt more solid.

As with all my previous Otter boxes for my iPhones and iPads, this one is also extremely tough and durable . I have tried other cases but I always go back to Otterbox.

I can’t figure out how to take pictures so can someone help me with this? The case is good to protect my iPad but can’t use it like I would have been able to with the case covering the photo lenses.
