[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 161793, member: 1963"] Oy yeah. My sister learned NEVER to complain to adult family members about being bored. Nothing like a day spent crawling around pcking tomato hornworm caterpillars off the tomatoes to solve that little issue. Or...turning over the compost heap, or (*gak*) helping dad clean out the roof top pigeon coop. My mother or dad could send kids scattering to find other occupations by just walking into a room and saying: "You look like you're getting bored. If you are, I'm sure I can find something for you to do." [/QUOTE]
