M and Q, our son and daughter, spent the two-week Christmas/New Year’s break perfecting their lethargy. They stretched out in their rooms, streamed music and movies, chatted through apps, and even read books until they emerged bored with being bored. My wife and I dedicated vacation days to much of the time, too, and we soon followed our kids all the way off fixed schedules. Up late at night, up late in the morning, eating how and when we wanted, which turned out to be poorly and often. We didn’t start some days until the afternoon, and we somehow didn’t feel like we shouldn’t have.
