Cerebral Palsy maybe/maybe not

But, spasticity in series (mediated by spindle controlled movement) is thick, slower to handle the unexpected, and maddeningly doing its own thing that isn’t quite the best choice. It is movement direct from a movement plan, not adapting with any speed using sensory factors. They seek stability . They need to do a conscious thing, then confirm that what they wanted to do was actually done. In a walker they bend forward to create an inherently large base (as a pyramid). But, they also LOOK at their feet. Some can not ‘walk’ if you hold a file folder under their chin (not touching (such that it blocks their vision of their feet). They will have heavy foot landings that make confirmatory sound or drag firmly to make the step. They are not ‘walking’. They are ‘stepping’. Each step is a self contained event. They need islands of stability to ambulate.
