You're right, but I think age has something to do with it.
When I was young I couldn't stand to be bored. And any second not doing something I was bored. As I got older, I realized I can just stare at the wall for an hour thinking about something and never really feel bored.
The wife and I got out of it by doing just as you said, going out everyday walking around for hours.
Didn't work on the kid. That was broken with brute force internet control, that she continues to try to find ways around.
- blackoil 3y ago> she continues to try to find ways around. If you are forcing a rule without right alternatives, you'll have to fill that time with something. If you leave them, they'll take easiest option i.e. social media not very diff. from what I am doing on HN. If they are mid-late teens maybe you just need to provide them the right resources but anyone younger, you should find activities to fill that time.
- silisili 3y agoAh you're right, but it's that odd tween age where I'm the most uncool person ever. Working though it.
