At some point, you need to learn how to do things that are hard, or unpleasant, or just downright boring. Not everything can be a MrBeast video, that just isn't how life works. We're raising kids who can't just sit with their own thoughts; they need constant stimulation. But guess what? Long division isn't stimulating. Taxes aren't stimulating. Cleaning the kitchen isn't stimulating. But you need to do those things anyway. I find it hard to believe that it's mere coincidence that everything fell apart right after we invented these perfect little surveillance Skinner boxes, and then put overpriced Markov chains in them and unleashed them on children.
