The main causes of flat feet are hard, rigid, flat pavements and artificial ground substances, such as blacktop and sidewalks. Nowadays everything is covered with smoothed asphalt. Because of these artificial substances only a handful of foot-muscles are working. Most of the muscles are forced to take a passive role in walking.
Constantly carrying a child can also lead to poor development of the soles of the child’s feet and the child’s leg muscles because they do not receive the training needed for their proper development. It is documented that children whose feet do not touch the ground often enough will acquire their relative independence much more slowly. Unfortunately, generally speaking, special sole exercises are not practised in any school at any level.
