    Why Kids Never Go Outside Anymore

    15:14Why Kids Never Go Outside Anymore
    • Talk to your children about not talking to strangers and do it today. A message for your child's safety from the American Medical Association, warning parents to keep a close eye on their children. Ironically, the whole craze had probably a lot of negative effects on the health and well-being of thousands of children, if not hundreds of thousands. Either it locked them inside with the people who were actually hurting them or they got lost or put in a bad situation and were too afraid to ask random people for help. One 11-year-old boy scout who got lost was too afraid of the people searching for him because they were strangers and so he actively hid from them. Even today though, you can trace the need to keep children under lock and key to these measures. It's gotten so bad that multiple people have been arrested for simply letting their kids walk alone to school or play alone outside. In 2022, one mum was arrested for child endangerment for letting her kids play alone at the park. It didn't matter that she had left them in the care of a family friend, she was added to the Central Registry, which in Arizona means that she could be barred from working with children for the next 25 years. Stories like this highlighted how crazy the US and the rest of the West have gotten about safeguarding children to the point that they've completely lost their independence. Breeding this fear of strangers and therefore of the outside world changed a whole generation's perspective. That fear of the unknown directly interferes with that crucial process of discovery and exploration that kids need to experience early on in their lives. Without it, they could be left scarred and afraid for the rest of their life. It's no wonder anxiety levels have skyrocketed. At the end of the day though, this still doesn't really explain the massive changes we've seen in how kids play. Tons of kids won't have ever listened to the stranger danger nonsense. Instead, physical changes that you can see with your own eyes are the ones that made the real difference. The way previous generations have made the world hostile to children is the number one reason they don't play outside anymore, and it was during the 1990s that these changes really came into effect.
