b'Boredom is often what drives people to be creative and productive, but with so much to entertain us these days, sometimes it\\u2019s harder to experience boredom and thus be creative. Even many of the toys created nowadays are more advanced and take away that bit of imagination that kids would otherwise have to do themselves. What you do as a parent will often influence what your kids do, like if you\\u2019re doing something that focuses on yourself, they will sense it and come bother you or want to be involved, but if you do something like house work for example where your focus is not on yourself, the kids will kind of mind their own business or keep themselves busy/entertained, knowing you\\u2019re available if they need you.

\\u201cOnce your attention is focused on something else where it\\u2019s not on them, and they know if they looked for your help, you wouldn\\u2019t be able to give it, then they want to interrupt that. But if it\\u2019s house work, they don\\u2019t care, they literally don\\u2019t care what you\\u2019re doing and they don\\u2019t bother you.\\u201d 7:10
