Sadly, when on a long car journey, boredom does not teach my children patience. It makes them torture each other and scream.
I deal *very* badly with boredom, and I don't think it has ever taught me anything. I'm very capable of turning off tvs, stereos and computers etc. and reading, playing a game or making music. I do it very regularly. I am, however, a kender by nature and firmly convinced that if there is such a thing as "hell" then for me, it will consist of a blank room with nothing at all in it. For all eternity. *SHUDDER*
Reading in a car was never an option for me, neither is anything with a screen - anything that keeps my eyes still whilst my body is moving (however slightly) makes me throw up in very short order. I'm a big fan of car stereos for this very reason!
