[quote=Anonymous]Crawling isn't used as a milestone anymore because there would be too many mistaken red flags. Lots of kids go directly to walking. In some cultures kids go from being carried/worn straight to walking. That said, there are kids who avoid crawling because it is particularly challenging for them. Kids who are wired to struggle with bilateral coordination and midline crossing have a very hard time crawling. And the activity of crawling can help resolve some of these issues--which is why it is used by therapists for school-aged kids who have certain issues. [/quote]
