So, a thread about fixing #flatfeet in kids here: footgearlab.com/exercises-to-c…
Let's unpack why there is a just enough truth to suck parents in, but not enough to be of value.

Firstly: Author quals. Sure, don't have to be qualified, this author is content ed (no health prof input)
/Just the title alone should ring warning bells.
If exercises were all it took to FIX foot posture, why doesn't everyone have feet with lovely arches from doing 20 simple things?
Let's also suck parents in with a cute photo, & guilt them into doing something that they'll fail.
/First words are the next issue:
Flat feet is a condition...um nope. Flat feet are an appearance. Millions of people, adults & children from all races, weights, tall, short, heavier & skinnier can have flat feet.
It's an appearance and no more a condition than blue eyes.
