Young and bored? Retired and handicapped and bored? Find SOMETHING to do for someone else.

OK, until now I’ve been ambivalent about the wholde FBOFW reset, but it just struck me that now I can appreciate the humor now more from Elly’s side, being an adult with my own young children, whereas the first time around I was the child.
I know it seems like a DUH moment, but I just had it, and I just can’t keep myself from sharing! ;-)

It can be dangerous for a kid to say they’re bored since the parent can always find something for them to do!

I wonder if Mike can remember this as he’s sitting and trying to get his next book written or deal with the kids etc.
