The capacity to endure a more or less monotonous life is one which should be acquired in childhood. Modern parents are greatly to blame in this respect; they provide their children with far too many passive amusements, such as shows and good things to eat, and they do not realise the importance to a child of having one day like another, except, of course, for somewhat rare occasions.

これはあくまでも「受動的な」娯楽を小さい子供に与えすぎないほうがよいとのアドバイスです。子供が自発的にいろいろな知識を得たり、経験したりして、暮らしを豊かにすることを否定しているわけではありません。
