Chronic stimulation from devices has diminished children's capacity to tolerate emotional discomfort without distraction. As a result, feelings of boredom trigger dysregulation due to the lack of practiced pathways for emotional regulation and reflection. Emotional volatility at home often indicates an underdeveloped ability in children to remain still and patient. Parental modeling of being present teaches children that experiencing emotional discomfort is manageable, encouraging them to face rather than escape their feelings. Ultimately, boredom represents a loss of creative and reflective opportunities for children.
