So my sister sends me a Buzzfeed article: “10 Mind-Blowing Benefits of Playtime That Every Parent Should Know.” It’s quality stuff. Good to know.

But why the hell is this even necessary? Why are we making kids into lab rats so that the reason to have kids play is because of measured benefits? There was a time, not long ago, that parents wanted kids to play because ...fun!

Have you bought into this narrative we’ve been told our whole lives that the only things that matter are quantifiable.
