Better eyesight for kids? Let them go out and play

March 25th, 2008

Recently, everywhere you can see advertisement everywhere advocating parents to let children to go out and play to improve their eyesight. It is a known fact that we are a country of glasses. So is the advertisement blaming that parents did not allow their children to play outdoors?

Of cos the children should have their own “childhood” to remember from but the pragmatic society nowadays will drive the parents to push their children for “tuition” almost every single days. So is it the parents fault?

The society nowadays is more indoor rather than outdoor. We would rather surf net then to do sports.

In addition, did you notice that kids are more obsessed with PSP? Unless the gah-men decide to build a theme park in every neighbourhood, this trend will still be difficult to reverse.

Better eyesight for kids? Let them go out and play: “STUDIES have shown that children who spend time outdoors have better eyesight than their computer-obsessed counterparts.”
