ALL WORK and NO PLAY: WHY YOUR KIDS ARE MORE ANXIOUS, DEPRESSED

In This article by Esther Entin reports say that kids free play time has been going down and it’s keeping them from being confident adults. And it explains why kids are more anxious, and depressed.

As you were young you probably remember playing a lot of child hood games, but over there years the time amount that children have spent playing games, house, tag, and many more games have declined. But in the article it says that less play time when your younger makes you more anxious and depressed as you get older. One of the reasons why they say this is because it is through play that children first learn how to make decisions, solve problems, exert self-control, and follow rules.

I think that what this article is saying is true that if kids don't get enough play time when their younger it makes them more anxious and depressed, and I also think that kids learn to handle their anger, fear, and emotions while playing.

This article makes me think are parents aware about what goes on in their children's lives. I as a young teen spent a lot of time playing around and I think that it made me more confident by being a good problem solver, and made me less emotion by knowing how to control my anger. And I know that a lot of these problems are going on with adults lacking off and this might just be the problem why.
