[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's OK for him to be bored. Learning to be bored is a underappreciated skill. [/quote] This seems to be a common theme. Yet I haven’t seen someone expand on it. When my teen was/is bored, they learned how to do xx. That’s the whole point of this thread, teen is bored, do you have any suggestions of hobbies that helped? What they could learn?[/quote] Omg the entire point is that they are bored and they are forced to figure this out on their own- find their OWN hobby, figure out what THEY want to do to break their boredom. That is where the personal growth comes in. Handing them idea after idea to choose from robs them of this opportunity. Why are you so afraid of your kid getting to figure out something on his own?[/quote]
