    The usual parental response is "Then clean your room, the garage, the car, the attic, the yard, etc. They usually learn not to say they're bored ever again, unless they're really dense.

    I've told my children "Saying that you're bored tells me that you have nothing to do." As something can always be found for them to do, they no longer complain to me of being bored.

    The lack of parent involvement, discipline, and family values are corroding the American family. A good piece of self-criticism!

    Cartoon Network has taken portions of our children away from us.  Whose fault is that?
 The TV hasn't "taken them away" from you - you have given them to it.

    My parents offered to find something for me to do. That usually cured my boredom in a big hurry.

    If I said I was bored to my mom - she would say "If you are bored I have plenty for you to do". And that would usually be tons of chores.

    "Find something to do or I'll find something for you." 
 
That usually worked for me.
