It's Good For As Long As You Can Put Up With The Whining

I like this as a topic: the need to let kids be bored. When they say "I'm borrrrrred," parents these days press a phone or tablet in their hands, or find something for the kids to watch. Instead, they need to find their own ways to cut the boredom. Creativity comes, as Lin-Manuel Miranda says, from the blank page or an empty bedroom. They don't need artificial stimulation; they need to learn how to fill the hours with their minds. You with me here? (New York Times)
