Take it to the vet if you fear it is severe. Most kittens will start to move around on their legs at 3 or 4 weeks old, and are usually playing and walking at 4 weeks or so. If your kitten is not developing as you think it should, take it to the vet for examination and treatment.
If, in the case of a young kitten that is developing more slowly than usual (but is otherwise deemed healthy by a vet), a proper feeding regime may help. Sometimes this entails bottle feeding or feeding him a bowl of cat food mixed with kitten milk (not cow's milk) or water and feed it to him every few hours along with allowing him to suckle from his mother.

Why would a kitten walk only on its front legs only?
I don't understand what you mean, if you could describe how the kitten walks, this might help to determine what is happening. Like, the kitten is dragging it's hind quarters, or is trying to balance on it's front paws, or is pulling with front paws and pushing and moving back paws but gets no traction. Something that describes with detail how the kitten is walking, also age, kind, other health conditions. Anything might be helpful.
