PSA for parents of toddlers: if your kid hates to walk and struggles to wear shoes, then get their feet checked out.
Coming from a woman who was branded a lazy kid only to be vindicated years later by severely high arches. I have even surgically corrected one of them.
Flat feet and high arches are treatable conditions but can cause a lifetime of pain if not diagnosed and addressed.

Shout out to people with flat feet
Shout out to people who's ankles roll in and almost touch the ground and/or their feet bow out
Shout out to people who have insoles/inserts, especially those who have custom made ones because of the severity
Shout out to people who have to limit what shoes they can/can't wear because their insoles won't fit in them (I have this problem with a pair of docs I really love)
Shout out to those who want to wear other shoes and can't because it'll potentially injure their feet
Shout out to people who can't do certain activities because of their flat feet and weak ankles
Shout out to those with flat feet and need insoles, your issue and the pain and struggles it causes you are valid even if rarely talked about

I'm never going to have that mid 30s to 40s moment where something flares up and it's an existential "𝘖𝘩? Oh no... oh 𝘯𝘰!" moment because suddenly your body is providing physical evidence of the most corporeal variety that you are indeed aging. But like... I've been having joint, muscle, foot, and a sprinkling of other types of pain from the age of 4 so like for me it'll just be a Tuesday. Another day another ache.

Here’s an example of a Flat Foot pony (left) and a Concave Foot pony (right).  Both ponies are Blue Belles and as you can see there’s also some color difference.  
The only ponies with flat feet versions are the original six collector ponies (Cotton Candy, Blossom, Blue Belle, Minty, Butterscotch, Snuzzle) and Peachy.

This is kinda weird but I’m trying to figure out how weird my ankles actually are. I have over-pronated ankles but high arches, which apparently is strange because flat feet cause over-probated ankles and high arches cause under-pronated.
Over-pronated ankles look like ) (
Under-pronated ankles look like ( )
And normal ankles are straight | |
Please reblog if you care to so I can get a larger sample! It would be much appreciated!

So, I have flat feet, and I walk primarily on my heels. Which means that my heels feel squishy and painful in the mornings. I have no science to back this up, but it feels like they inflate overnight and then walking in the morning feels like stabbing my heel bone through my foot and into the floor. When I’ve consistently work my shoes with inserts, it doesn’t feel near as bad, but it still happens.
And stabbing feet reminds me of The Little Mermaid, and maybe a fun concept: what if the Sea Witch was actually trying to do a good job, but because she didn’t to it that often, she worried that she might make the fin-to-foot transition too flat. Because going from a membrane to a whole fleshy appendage is A Lot. So maybe she warned the little mermaid that it might feel like stabbing if she got the feet too flat.
Or: many adaptions depict the transformation as a fast thing, and then whoops! The little mermaid should get up to the surface, because ~now she can’t breather water~. But what if the Sea Witch had to like, cast a beam of magic slowly over each part of the body to change it, and while she was doing the feet, the little mermaid was fidgeting and the Sea Witch warns that she could get it wrong and make her feet flat and make her feel like she’s stepping on knives, so stop fidgeting! And then the mermaid has never taken a step before, and it feels painful because she doesn’t have callouses and natural brain ignoring-the-sensation capabilities.
Or or or, the sea witch just knows stilettos are in style and is trying to talk the mermaid out of it

This is what one month of wear does to my boots and ankle braces. Obviously they were NOT like that when I got them. Maybe you get an idea of what I mean when I say flat feet has REALLY done a ton of damage to my ankles!

Months of heel and two weeks of ankle pain. Turns out it's flat foot issues 😂 getting orthotics next week, will have to wear closed shoes (my poor autism isn't gonna like that)
In the meantime, feet have been tapped to simulate orthotics and the white bandage is cos I had a slightly ingrown toenail which got sorted out too

THESE FUCKING SHOES I HATE THEM SO MUCH WHY DID WE ONLY GET UGLY ASS SHOES LIKE THAT IM GONNA SCREAM ive never felt this personally touched on a topic by a movie before, and i never really considered my flat feet a disability but it has def played a part in how much chronic pain i have now i so maybe it could be called that?? but idk, thats a complicated topic on its own
anyways the fury and recognition i felt on this screen is hilarious to me like LKDSHFLKDSHLKFDS GOD. HELP. IVE HAD THESE EXACT FUCKING SLIPPERS ITS LKDSHFLKDSHFLKHDSLFHDSLK FUCKA YOUUUUU AAAAA
(to be clear i am grateful to have had the oppurtunity and priviledge and money to access an aid(?) that helps me walk and function. but by god there was only like a few brands so it was always fuckin ugly i wanted cool shoes like every kid did god damn)

This is my new everyday work routine thanks to my conditions. The knee braces, ankle brace, and arch supports all have to go on before I start getting dressed. I have to have the arch supports- and often the ankle brace, as well- on everyday so I am not in massive pain trying to walk around. It sucks...but not as much as it did without the braces and supports. So... 🤷‍♀️
