Even purely imaginative play in the backyard is how children come to desire backyards for their own children, and the suburban houses, mortgages, and cars that come with them. Public parks, well now you're just softening them up to support Big Government.
Everything about childhood has commercial implications if you squint hard enough.
Children playing outside are in the early stages of a physically and financially devastating addiction perpetrated by those monsters in the sporting goods and sports medicine industries. Before you know it, they'll be loading up Subarus full of REI snowboarding gear and burning gasoline in the direction of Tahoe. Keep your kids away from the outdoors, everyone, there lies capitalism!
Children reading are merely a resource being ripened for exploitation by publishing companies, who have somehow duped the taxpayer into providing customers for them!
Communicating with each other? Oh God, the horror.
