Richard Louv and children in nature

Richard Louv documented how children separated from unstructured nature become neurologically different—more anxious, less resourceful, less able to entertain themselves—which matters because nature isn't a luxury item, it's a developmental requirement. His work is basically a permission slip to let kids get dirty.
