> .Any country can solve it, just incentivise families. In the US, parenting time is up 20-fold, from a few hours per week to 24/7 adulting. Companion to that is that free-range land has shrunk from many sq/mi to a few sq/yds. Car culture and trespassing culture has eliminated the irreplaceable environments where adult-free, peer time nurtured mental health and abilities. As near as I can tell, parenting and childhood is irreparably broken in the US. We certainly seem incapable of recalling what sustainable parenting once looked like. On rare occasion someone will recall that kids once roamed all over. Maybe that gets connected to less mental health issues. Either way it's all forgotten moments later.
