Of course we want our children to play. Who doesn’t? But how many of you are willing to let them play the way they want to—and need to? Parents are too quick to jump in and supervise in well-intentioned efforts to teach children right from wrong, how to be “nice”, and how not to be selfish. But do these intentions fit with a child’s normal developmental processes? Children’s play has become more and more supervised and externally directed. The result can be dire for later learning and discipline issues in our youth.
