    This is a sweet story, but I think the dad should’ve been a little concerned that a 3 year old is still crawling.

    Edit: Y’all can save your “um actually”s, I was just poking a little fun. I know 3 years olds are capable of crawling. In my experience they usually just run everywhere.

      I mean, if Dad was sitting on the ground right there, crawling towards him instead of standing up isn’t super crazy

      I have a cousin whose kid is around that age, and he sprints around the house and then grabs a drink and stares you right in the eye as he pours it directly on the floor.

      Your mileage may vary.

        My brother’s terror and my favorite, when he was 3 he climbed over five baby gates and up and down the stairs, and somehow climbed up and gotten the good bread knife off of the top of the bookshelf it was stashed on top of. He charged into the room and waved it at us, sternly lecturing us that This. Is. Not. A. Toy. He’s 15 now and I don’t know how he’s survived this long.

      Crawling doesn’t imply not being able to walk. Like, I’m fully an adult and if I’m on the floor I’ll scoot to something rather than standing if it’s not too far.
