Can't A Child Just Play!

When our parents were younger, it was common to go out and play everyday after school and throughout the summer. Do you feel like children and teens today have too many other activities to do that prevent from them getting out to play and have fun? When you were younger do you remember having to stay inside to do work verses going out to play? Do you see younger siblings or the younger children around you having to stay in even more that you had to?
