using the concept of a day to represent a human's lifetime

so in the morning, a baby would be on all fours, afternoon an adult would be walking with two legs, and near the end of a human's life, a man would be old and require a cane to walk at night

The correct answers. I thank you all for participating, and while easy I hope you had some fun. My friend and I were arguing if it was possible to make multiple choice riddles.

well, if it wasn't multiple choice, it would make a much more difficult riddle, plus the results would vary much more. anyway, the answers the gode ol' LoKe gave us, were the exact same ones i put, before seeing his post.
