This might be hooey

My boss swears you can tell if your kid is physically capable of walking by this test:

Take a comb and stroke the bottom of their foot from heel to toe. If the toes flex outward, they are not ready; inward, they are. It has to do with the nerve development.

He always tells me this with the caveat that just because the nerves are developed doesn't mean your child can walk, just that they are physically capable. But if they don't have the nerve development, there is nothing you can do to make them walk...until they do

    It is a thing?! Holy crap. I swear he has been telling me about it for 3 years (since Bradley was almost walking)

  • What @PSNLS‌ said. But I've never heard of it having anything to do with walking.
