Boredom is the result of life style,It is up to the individual to change his/her outlook on life.Life is what you make it.

I tell you, I have NEVER been bored. There’s always too much to worry about ... and then there’s akaqa!

I just can't see anyone being bored . There's always something to do. Read-clean the house-try a new recipe-call someone on the phone! How can you be bored?

I think its part lazy, part getting into a rut and depression, no need for anyone to get bored, just need to appreciate what we have and share our time with others, there is so much out ther we can all be doing, and how good does it make you feel to help those that are unable to do for themselves,I went to uni in my late 30's, help elderly neighbours and work, wish I had more time, boredom is not an option

flashgetz, I doubt boredom is a learned behaviour in children, cognitive or learned would be accepted as the "norm", therefore the child would not recognize boredom as a problem, I think depression can be a factor for boredom in adults.
