> a quietly occupied child is the goal of a positive parental experience Being quietly occupied is great for a child if they are productively engaged -- i.e. they felt bored but then decided to do something productive about it. With a few guardrails, boredom in otherwise well-adjusted kids is a superpower. My daughter (11) has been producing a family newspaper. She was complaining of being bored, so I gave her an old 2011 MacBook Pro with lots of preinstalled apps and no Internet access. |
