古德温说，这将给企业带来“严重的长远后果”。

Mr Goodwin is not the first to warn about the issue: several studies have linked a drop in play with negative consequences.

古德温不是第一个就该问题提出警告的人，许多研究都曾指出玩耍时间减少引发的负面影响。

Dr Peter Gray, a US psychologist and professor at Boston College, has argued that the fact children play less has led to an increase in childhood mental disorders including anxiety and depression, as well as a decline in empathy.

美国心理学家、波士顿学院教授皮特•格雷博士指出，孩子玩耍时间减少会导致儿童期精神障碍的情况增加，包括焦虑、抑郁和同理心减弱。

"In play, children themselves must decide what to do and how, and they must solve their own problems… and thereby develop competence and confidence," he wrote recently.

格雷博士最近写道：“在玩耍过程中，孩子们自己必须决定做什么、怎么做，他们必须解决自己的问题……从而让能力和自信心得到增强。”

Architect Frank Lloyd Wright and artist Paul Klee were also strong advocates of "block play" for children, to help develop spacial awareness and imagination.

建筑师弗兰克•劳埃德•赖特和艺术家保罗•克利也都非常支持让孩子玩积木游戏，他们认为玩积木游戏可以培养空间意识和想象力。
