Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Walking milestones can vary widely from child to child, and it is not appropriate to make judgments about intelligence or physical health based on when a child begins walking. Both girls are within the range of normal development for starting to walk, and this milestone alone does not indicate any significant differences in their overall development.
