Rustico-
I think religion is nice for kids that age. Makes them feel good.
As for the getting “easily distracted with other interesting pursuits”… have you ever heard of Barbara Sher? She writes really interesting stuff about that. It is called being “scanner” and I am definitely one too! I have an endless array of ideas I am interested in. I cycle through them, and some i come back too, some I do not.
Any of her books make for good reading (and quick, funny, too) and help you focus and take action on those ideas. They are usually at the library…..
