This is an absolutely bizarre way you've chosen to interpret the post.

[-] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

How the fuck is it bizarre? What's bizarre is saying people need to not sit and do literally nothing. It's such a fucking obvious statement, it's like saying people need to eat to not starve. Bunch of fucking morons on this site. If that's a lesson you need teaching, you probably aren't intelligent enough to survive without substantial supportive care

And yet, the person in the screenshot was surprised that giving their child something to do was good for them.

They were surprised that giving their child something physical to do was good for them. Something outside, dirty, and taking a lot of energy. That's an important lesson, nowadays when do much of parenting is indoors and on tablets.

That's the lesson. All you dumb fucks are missing it and it's really blowing my mind that you think the kid was literally sitting doing nothing up until mom gave him a shovel. Not reading, not doing homework, not playing games, just sitting and not doing a damn thing.

It's the dumbest shit I've ever heard of. And it's pissing me off that our society could produce such stupid people.

That's not at all how we were interpreting this, and I don't know how you decided we were.

Initially I thought not too, but OP personally responded saying that's what he meant.
