Causes of that include the following:
• Child relying too much on the baby walker, which may
delay self-­‐reliance in walking. However, if there is still a
delay in walking after that, you should take the child to
the doctor.
• Lack of self-­‐confidence in the child and fear of failure
after having failed in any attempt. Hence you have to try
to give him confidence and hold his hand until he gets
used to standing and starts to take his first steps.
• A child may be late in walking because he prefers to
crawl, as crawling may protect him from dangers that he
may be faced with when he first starts to walk. The
mother has to encourage the child to walk by making
repeated efforts to make him stand on his feet whilst he
is crawling.
• Walking may be delayed because of the child being
carried all day and not being given the opportunity to try
to walk.
• The child may be slow in learning to walk because he is
overweight, due to the mother giving the child too much
rice pudding, corn starch, sweets and so on, which leads
to obesity in the child and his not being able to take his
first steps.

• The reason why the child is not walking may be new
shoes that the mother has put on him, which may be
uncomfortable or may make him slip every time he tries
to stand. Hence it is better not to use shoes before the
child learns to walk.
When is a child regarded as late in walking?
• You have to differentiate between delays in walking and
problems in walking.
• The child is regarded as late in starting to walk if he
reaches the age of one and a half years and has not yet
started to try to walk. But you should wait until he
reaches the age of two years before you can say that your
child has a problem with being late in walking.
