- robotkdick 8y agoJust curious. How does your 7-year-old respond?
- fredsir 8y ago“...but that’s boring!!!”
- yawz 8y agoHe’s not too convinced at first. But most of the time he ends up with something fun. Which I use as an example the next time he says That he’s bored. As a single child he’s already used to spend some time alone. So it’s relatively rare that we hear “I’m bored”.

- yawz 8y agoWell, alright. I don’t use the word “embrace” with him in any case.
