Parents, if you want your kids to get more exercise, you'd be wise to get out of their way.
In a new study, published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine,
researchers sought to observe how kids play in parks. Their overarching
goal was to help park designers create public spaces that would better
entice kids to run around and exercise. But along the way, the authors
discovered something else: the single biggest barrier to children's
physical activity had less to do with park design itself and more to do
with the hovering presence of a parent.
