Once more am here again, I write for a living, let's see what I have for today please read 👇👇
Introduction
Customs and tradition in some part of the world permit mother's to apply some pressure to make a baby sit, stand or walk, some even go to the extent of digging holes and placing the baby in those holes while some will cover the babies leg with sand unknowingly endangering the childs future.
It is acceptable to sink into a baby some thoughts like walking sitting and standing, you keep on as a mother teaching them as they grow to different stages of life, but not forcefully or applying pressure.
Do you know that it is dangerous to force a baby into sitting down?
The truth still remains that God created them to do all this as they grow up.
Dangers
Forcing a baby that can't control his or her head into sitting position can cause spine injury and brain damage, the worst is that because they are still babies the symptoms of such complications remains insignificant or heeding for a long time thereby jeopardizing the child's future.
Some people forces a baby to sitting position once the baby is two months, it is dangerous because the babies brain is not yet ready for such task.
This is common in African country like Nigeria.
It is very important that you allow the baby develop as the brain directs it.
In some cases you will see a child that was completely fine during birth but all of a sudden the baby develops some problems that you can't easily understand why, pressure to the brain can be a factor to this problems.
Pressure to a babies brain can also result to cerebral palsy which affect the body movement and coordination, speech, it can also affect their vision and thier hearing.
Cerebral means brain while palsy means feebleness of the muscles, the affected person will never be in control of the body movement, there are different types of cerebral palsy.
So sad that children with such cases are very difficult to be handled.
This might result to damaging the babies muscle that will assist her in crawling and even walking.
Medical Advice
Bear in mind that every child develops according to his or her brain growth so enforcement can only cause more harm than good.
For any reason you want to teach your baby how to sit or do any form of movement, make sure the baby is at least 4 months by the the brain cells have developed and are much ready for such things.
Always watch your child to know if she is active and communicates very well, like smiling back to you, noticing when you come into the room and when you call her name, if those signs reduces quickly go to the hospital and see a pediatrician.
* Always make sure you visit a pediatrician for your babies health not a general doctor, because pediatricians are professionals when it comes to babies health.
Pay constant attention and be observant because each steps of growth your baby will show a sign of readiness.
You can start by sitting your baby in your laps while you watch her, do not put him down and allow him fall because you might think he's not hurt but there my be some future complications.
Conclusion
Sometimes it is not easy especially when we think our baby is not doing well but the only thing that will help us is not to compare our babies growth to another.
Do not compare your baby for any reason.
Because this will move you to do things or train the baby beyond her brain ability and this my ruin her future.
Bear in mind that every child has his own ability to develop and do things as his brain gets ready for them.

I totally agree on this! Its really dangerous to force a baby stand before he's ready for it. And sometimes older people makes it more difficult and try to intervene in how moms take care of their babies.
