Something strange is going on. Between 1997 and 2001, the amount of time that American children aged 8 to 10 spent on outdoor activities declined by 50%. Richard Louv, the author of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder (自然缺失癥), believes this is a factor in the recent rise in childhood depression, attention-deficit disorder and obesity.
What’s keeping kids indoors? Louv covers a variety of reasons, starting with the fact that 57 million Americans now live in homes governed by homeowners’ associations or other neighborhood groups, many of which have rules that restrict outdoor free play. School free play outside is becoming a thing of the past thanks to concerns over lawsuits from parents and the increased focus on testing. Fewer children are playing alone even in their own backyards, due to parents’ fears about “stranger danger”.
Of course, there’s always soccer, right? Unfortunately, the explosion of organized sports has only served to make matters worse, without providing much of a benefit. Many towns are choosing to destroy areas of natural parkland to make room for more playing fields. But the increase in sports has gone hand-in-hand with that famous rise in childhood obesity. Something isn’t working.
Louv presents studies that show how nature can help heal traumatized (受到創(chuàng)傷的) children, fascinate kids who suffer from ADHD and encourage physical exercise and social interaction. He also reminds us of the value in the kind of skill-building experiences that are unique to the outdoors like camping, fishing or constructing a tree house. We’re also in danger of losing an entire generation of potential environmental activists.
And guess what? Adults have nature-deficit disorder too. So don’t just send your children outside to play. Go with them! Don’t forget to grab a fishing rod, a sleeping bag or a jar to collect fireflies on your way out. Just be back in time for dinner, okay?

The Elephant and the Fly
An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came，flying and buzzing near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and the elephant waved it away once more. 
This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”
The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My senses pull me constantly in all directions and I cannot resist them. What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”
The elephant said, “My senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I get involved in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating. In this way I can enjoy my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention. When you are in charge of your senses and attention, your mind will become calm.”
