actually its not. The injury mechanism is competly different.
a crawling baby is all of 1 foot, maybe a foot and .5 off the ground(head)
if they are to fall down the stairs, it would be low speed, and more like a uncontrolled slide (did anybody else body slide downstairs as a child?)
in the walker, their head is up alot higher, increasing probability of head and neck injuries because they now topple over, instead of sliding. Also, walkers move significantly faster than a crawling baby, leaving less time for even an attentive parent to stop them. |
Not disputing the facts here, but shouldn't the stairs have something blocking them sans baby-racers anyways?
I'm not the greatest advocate of 'baby-proofing' a house anyways except for the very basic precautions; stairs would seem like a pretty basic one to me...
