Here is a ONE and only SOLUTION… build places where kids can play, and challenges for each to take. Teach them that being rude is not welcomed; and by playing with others, sharing, listening, and cooperating with each other.. it’s a WIN.
Bike riding, running, horizontal and vertical obstacles, mud, sand, learning how to build from recycled stuff.. All that in a stasium type of complex, several floors.
But guess what… You wont do it because too many risks involved. Then, this goes back to ALL O’YAHs calling kids having ADHD conditions. Dont blame the environment, blame yourselves

This seems obvious to me, but judging by the number of anxious and “anxious” kids we have in our midst, it seems I’m in the superminority. If you don’t let your kids experience any adverse feelings, they won’t learn how to deal with them.

It’s all about balance. Give your kids as many experiences as possible without overwhelming them or you. That includes both positive and negative situations that happen to occur. Show yourself mitigating the negative consequences (checking the weather before a walk, bringing a rain jacket) and they will learn to do the same.
