The Story of Dida and Sasha Best of Friends — Melissa Jones

It is normal for a child to talk constantly about their friends, real or imagined. Making friends is one of the most important missions of the childhood environment, a social skill that will last their lifetime. Have a best friend, playing with other children on the playground and go to birthday parties and sleepovers are some of the things that are routine for most children.

Unfortunately, some children struggle with these things and are struggling to make and keep friends. This does not mean that your child must be a "socialite" and be loved by every Tom, Dick and Harry. In fact, a shy or quiet child may just have one or two good friends and be very happy. However, if they appear removed from other children in the crowd, it is a cause for concern.

However, it can be a problem if your child has no friends or is never invited to play with other children, especially if they seem to be worried in this regard. This was the case for Sasha, a beautiful girl: lively, funny and kind and the parents were very proud of this fact. The mom was deeply concerned about her difficulties in making friends or joining other children they played with.
