In this new podcast, Dr. Jordan describes a way to redirect kids from “I’m bored & you need you to entertain me” to “So, what will you do?” He suggests brainstorming with your kids about fun things they’d like to do when they’re bored so that they obtain the benefits of learning to take responsibility for their lives and also receive the social-emotional benefits of free, unsupervised play.
