Maybe your son would relate to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/imaginary-friend#post-2753678 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 20:35:25 +0000 nana87 2753678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a child with an imaginary friend, but I definitely had a whole bunch of imaginary friends in early elementary school (I remember making up stories about my imaginary friends and imaginary pets with a *real* friend who I didn't meet until kindergarten) so I wouldn't worry about him "still" having one! I was just a really creative kid and ended up loving to write as I got older. I still write for my job, though not fiction! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/imaginary-friend#post-2753675 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 20:34:04 +0000 Smurfette 2753675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She had an imaginary older sister named Libby. We had a bday party for her last weekend. She came to work with me one day last week too. LO asked when I picked her up if Libby had fun at my work. It is annoying at times but I love she is using her imagination. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/imaginary-friend#post-2753617 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 20:30:00 +0000 travellingbee 2753617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I've post about this before but my 4 year still has an imaginary friend. (No I'm sorry, to quote him, "He is just very camouflaged" :silly: ) I think it's funny, but he talks about him like he's totally real and his teacher thought it was his cousin or something. He tells some people it's his brother, haha! I guess I should tell his teacher in the fall so she doesn't think we have some crazy other son! Anyone else have a child with an imaginary friend? </p>
