According to a team of researchers writing in the Journal of Pediatrics, \"What has declined specifically is children's freedom to engage in activities that involve some degree of risk and personal responsibility away from adults\" (Gray et al., 2023). The authors attribute the alarming rates of anxiety and depression among kids (at least in part) to \"a decline over decades in opportunities for children and teens to play, roam, and engage in other activities independent of direct oversight and control by adults.\" Other forms of less-supervised activity also contribute to kids' mental health, according to the researchers, such as getting to and from school alone or with other children, or-for teenagers-holding a job.
