This decline in play has been accompanied by dramatic increases in childhood depression and anxiety and by dramatic declines in creativity\, internal locus of control\, and psychological resilience.\n\n \n\nIn this talk\, Dr. Gray will present the logic and evidence behind his claim that the decline in free play is a\, if not the\,  major cause of these deleterious effects on children's well-being.
