Yes!!
My daughter did this alot & developed
ankle, knee & hip problems which we
didn't discover till she was about 10
& by then getting her to wear the
orthotics inside her shoes everyday was a
disaster, my son doesn't do it to any
great extent but he does have weak knees
& ankles (he's 9) my daughter now
about to be 16 is paying the price for it
not being recognized & dealt with
sooner & for her refusing to do all
the right things when it was diagnosed
& treated.

Yes, My Son Thinks Its a Game.... Posted: 12-07-04 11:54am
My son does the same thing and lays on his
tummy and wobbles back and forth....I dont
think its anything to worry about, because
I know that my friends son did it and hes
just fine....
