I was wondering if anyone thought this was an important factor of a child’s wellbeing.

Although I loved my childhood in the countryside and would raise my child the same way I don’t think it really matters.

I think it’s important for children to grow up around nature or have access to it but I know this is easier said than done and greenspace is a privilege.

I also think that the family and the community that the child grows up around is more important in their nourishing their experiences. If a child is raised by neglectful parents then obviously no amount of wide open spaces and nature will eclipse this.

Their are benefits to growing up in each of these places, what would you think they are and do you think that one place is better to grow up in? Or is it irrelevant.
