Standing on side of foot?

NAS35566
over 5 years ago

My 7 year old son,  has recently started to stand on the side of his feet, when standing still. He walks normally but when still he turns his foot to the side and stands on the side of the foot. Not sure what to do as he balances and he is comfortable doing it (I am worried about his ankles). Does anyone else child do this? What is it called?

    I work with young autistic people.  One lad walks normally, but always stands on the sides of his feet when standing still.  Another lad always walks on tip-toes.

    Maybe you could try having a word with an occupational therapist.  Your GP may be able to put you in touch with one.
