[quote=Anonymous]I believe there is some truth to the theory/theories that kids these days do not have as much core strength and vestibular balance as in the olden days of climbing trees, jungle gyms, doing cartwheels, hanging upside down, etc. They're sitting at school all day, sitting in the car, maybe running a bit at soccer but in a very controlled way. So they're behind in figuring out how their bodies work and it's a bit scary for some of them. The good thing about late learners is that they get it right away....my 9 yo learned in a day when the previous summer he had taken fall after fall. [/quote]
