Hello doctor.. my baby is 15months, not walking yet.. he likes to crawl a lot, everytime I leave him on floor he gets hurt badly by hitting his head, face, teeth on floor.. so I decided to let him play on bed.. he sometimes gets mad and becomes uncontrollable for not letting him play independently on floor but he sits on bed and plays for long hours and few times a day we help him practice on his walker .. is sitting long hours for a baby is ok?

A. if the baby is comfortable there is nothing to worry about you can let your child play the way the child wants to walkers are actually not safe for the baby so it is better to avoid them
