The Importance of Social Interaction for Children's Social Development
Aggression and cooperation are essential elements of human nature that must coexist for success in the world, as individuals need to navigate politics, make friends, and resolve conflicts. Through natural play, children learn important social skills such as making rules, resolving disputes, and accepting judgments, which are crucial for their social development. Engaging in physical play with peers helps children learn low-stakes mistakes and conflict resolution, whereas online interactions through video games and social media may lack these key skills, leading to more significant consequences like public embarrassment and even mental health risks. Creating stable, small groups of children for social interactions is vital for their healthy development, as opposed to exposing them to large, anonymous online communities that may hinder their empathy and social skills development.
