approaching first birthday, still cant stand

Mom... I'm really worried. My child is almost 1 year old (11 months) and still can't stand up... can sometimes stand with support, but still falls often. Not to mention standing, even when supported, they cry and just want to sit down. It's like they're scared. Why is that, mom... I want to take them to a pediatrician, but last time I went, I was scolded for supposedly not providing enough stimulation and not caring for my child. It's exhausting to be judged constantly. has anyone experienced the same?

give them some time.. for now just have standing time with support everyday as frequent as possible but don't force the baby. make it fun, sing a song. hold their hand while they take the baby steps. i was worried too when my boy didn't show any sign of readiness to walk. till I felt so stress. but eventually i let him be and enjoy seeing him crawl a little longer. he started to walk independently at 16 months old 🤭 and since theb it's like a chasing game at home everyday
