I've had bad overpronation, so familiar with it. I noticed how BAD my 3 yr. olds feet turn in/under when standing. You can see how his back bone or whatever from heel up turn inwards when looking from behind...you can actually watch his feet 'cave' in. He also has had where toes tend to turn inward when walking. He was is braces at night to help correct that when started to walk, but now seems to be going backwards again. ANYWAYS, any suggestions. Orthotics for one that young?
thanks for input

My daughter has really flat feet and seems to already have a bunion on one foot. She is only 4 years old - or will be next month.

I had orthodics ordered for her and she wears them when she is wearing the right type of shoes. With summer she likes lot's of flip flops and sandels so she can't wear the orthodics when she's wearing these shoes. But she's fine in them and they don't bother her at all.
