Sep 16, 2022 at 7:57 comment added R Davies @Ben yes at that age it was all about looking at literally everything, walking just happens to be a mechanism they can use to get between interesting things! Actually being able to walk somewhere with them in any sort of useful way, and in time, took a lot longer. We used a hiking backpack carrier a lot at that age if we actually had to be anywhere fast!
Sep 16, 2022 at 4:33 comment added anongoodnurse @Ben - I don't think it's coldhearted now that I know it happened inside and not while she was playing outside. I think it's a different issue, and seeing as she's only 14 months, she's not able to tell you, so she cries.
Sep 16, 2022 at 3:11 comment added Ben @anongoodnurse well, I did exactly this.. I walked "away" for 1-3 meters but I also see other parents+kids with same aged kids where they walk just aside or also with some meters distance without issues. So I didn't assume this would be coldhearted. I hoped she would just follow me. On the playground, in contrast, it's working. The same within our garden so it feels like it's always on public streets and the like.
Sep 16, 2022 at 3:09 comment added Ben thanks a lot! 20-30mins is quite a lot, how much would this be in distance? So when you walk with your kid it is more that it is on the ground and less about walking?
Sep 15, 2022 at 16:52 comment added anongoodnurse If she broke her leg outside at daycare, forcing her to choose between walking outside or staying inside (I'm assuming you wouldn't take her outside just put her down and walk away if that was what happened?) seems a "coolhearted" approach. That detail matters, and it's missing.
