No, people are not born bow-legged. It is a condition where the bones below the knee (especially, but also the thigh bones are affected), in which the legs bow outwards.

It is a condition brought about by the lack of vitamin D in early childhood. It is an abnormal condition.

Babies can get that way from standing too early and you can be born this way too....

Bow legged is when your legs flare out to the side at the knee and your leg bones (tibia) are bent outward so that when you have shorts on, your legs look like a bow (arrow and bow or rain-bow bow)

When someone who has bow legs is standing straight their knees bow outward instead of touch.
All babies are born looking bow legged so don't worry.
Even if your legs are bowed - it doesn't harm you.
