Everybody's different.Nobody's perfect.Some kids can't run as fast as others can.Even though they get where they're going, it takes them more time to get there.Their legs are weak, and they have a hard time jumping, running, climbing stairs, or just keeping up when they are playing with other kids.This is called muscle weakness and it's caused by a disease called muscular dystrophy.
