It’s actually not necessary the concentration power but the available time when being adult… 🤔

Reading 2 books wouldn’t be a huge problem today (if they are good and less then 1000 pages). But unfortunately the two toddlers here say no to me sitting a few hours on the couch and reading some book.

Being a child also doesn't demand as much mental load. Yes you've got school but as an adult I've not only got work but all the tasks of running a home, food, driving, and other misc "chores" that pop up throughout the day. At the end of that it can be difficult to further concentrate sometimes.
