imaginary friend

Getting to know all about your child’s imaginary friend. When should you consider a child psychologist?

By admin on August 23, 2010

Many parents tend to become wary when their children start communicating and playing with their imaginary friends. Some children may personify their stuffed doll or toy, often pushing it in a pram, talking to it and putting it to bed at night. For other children an imaginary friend could very well be invisible to everyone else but very real for the child.
