US EditionParents in the UK believe they had safer childhoods than their children
- A YouGov survey of 4,017 UK parents commissioned by the NSPCC found many believe their childhoods were safer than their children's today.
- This perception reflects concerns over barriers like safety, cost-of-living, and online accessibility limiting children's in-person play.
- The survey showed 40% of children played in person daily, dropping to 27% among 12–16 year olds, while 38% played online daily or more.
- Chris Sherwood, NSPCC CEO, stated parents feel childhood experiences are moving in the wrong direction with particular worry about reduced in-person play.
- The NSPCC’s Childhood Day on June 6, sponsored by Lidl GB, aims to raise funds and encourage more positive in-person play for children.
