> just let the kids play outside I grew up rurally and can guarantee I spent more time outside than most. It was almost impossible to get me back inside. I’d leave early AM and go explore our until dark day after day, month after month year after year. Yet I still ended up with myopia (that started very young.) Of course, I probably just got unlucky. Across a population it’s probably good advice, but it’s not a magic bullet and it’s not a guaranteed answer. That being said if I was inside, I as almost guaranteed to have my nose in a book. Wonder if that had any impact despite my consistent exposure to outside.
