Quote
The lionization of safety leads to oversupervision and the attempt to remove risk from children’s lives. And in the name of protecting children from danger, we protect them from developmentally appropriate physical activity as well. Many children don’t get to swing on swings, ride on teeter-totters, play with friends in front of their houses, or walk to school.
