How does playing with Lego not constitute down time?
Monitoring and fostering a child's emotions and development via play is mentally taxing. Playing Legos, although fun, isn't exactly downtime.
ok but... lego
Doesn't matter what you do. It's still taxing.
You sound like you've never been an adult having to watch a child (offspring or not)
My thought exactly. Unless his mood was so bad he just felt like vegetating for a few hours.
Idk, probably just wanted a little alone time. Sometimes I need to be alone to decompress.
So I've literally played an ADHD-soothing shitty phone game on the couch while denying my son asking me to join him on Nintendo. One shuts my brain down to repair (and I usually end up picking up a controller after my mind is calm), while the other is active and engaging. Think about playing MP with your grown ass friends and getting frustrated. Imagine a kid.
(Yes.. that's not as chill as LEGO, but you've never seen my kid trying to follow LEGO instructions after a long day. Equally possible to not be chill)
