Why do kids not need knee pads while crawling around on the floor?

875 viewsBiologyOther

I’ve got the flexibility and energy to crawl around with kids, but I need knee pads when it’s hard wood or tile floors. I just feel the hard surface scrape against the bones of my knees/ankles. Kids don’t seem to notice a difference. What is different about their knees that allows them to enjoy any kind of floor?

You get heavier. You skin gets less resilient. The expected result ensues. It’s really as simple as that. Remember, your skin isn’t going to get tougher or thicker in proportion to your growth.
