Summary
Is boredom good for kids? In this episode of Andisheh Parenting, I explore why unstructured time is essential for children’s growth, plus what a 1930s Austrian village can teach us about purpose and connection. We’ll also look at how co-housing communities give kids freedom, safety, and a built-in village, and my vision for creating one in Austin, Texas.
