- While rising rates of teen mental health issues can’t be pinned to a single root cause, a 2023 study surfaced a compelling connection to the decline in childhood independence.

There is growing concern around the widespread mental health issues that teenagers face, and while finding causes can be elusive, a recent study reveals a new angle-rooted in childhood development-that is gaining traction.
In 2023, researchers compiled and assessed data trends that showed a drop in opportunities for children to engage in play, chores, and roles that are not directly overseen and controlled by adults (doi.org/10.101... ). Unsupervised play and purposeful work contribute to the development of important feelings of competence, autonomy, and relatedness in childhood and adolescence, which lead to healthy young adults. Without those opportunities, children may be missing out on a critical part of their growth. The message seems clear-adults should strive to ensure that children have ample chances to grow in their confidence through independent play and exploration.

Important research, thank you so much for spreading the word!

We can't leave kids alone at school. In Japan, the community can be trusted to watch over someone else's children as they play outside. Trusting the kids to have more freedom to explore also needs a trustworthy society to protect them.
Found ongoing bullying of disabled people. Wanna know the commentsection so you can give them a piece of your mind?
To show Solidarity?
So they need to be made like Gen X!
Agreed. Could you explain?
Get outside and don’t come back until the street light turns on. Your phone I locked to only call me or your mom for the duration. 🖖🏼
