[quote=Anonymous]I learned to sit like this as a preschooler copying some other children. I wish my parents would have intervened to prevent it. As an adult, my ability to easily W-sit is responsible for some serious IT-band issues that cause a ton of knee pain and even contribute to chronic back pain. It's been a major factor in preventing me from being the kind of runner I want to be--and while that might sound unimportant, I be worried about taking away this excellent form of exercise from my kids. I've also dropped a ton of money on physical therapy to strengthen the muscles around my hips and knees, which have a ton of extra looseness because of sitting this way as a child. If my kid started sitting this way, I'd do as much as I could to prevent it. [/quote]
