Side note: It all started when I told him that we go places to play
with other kids so he can make new friends. So he asked who his
friends were, and I named a few and then some family members. So you
can see where his logic train started.
Not so Funny: Owen has been having a rough few days… problems with
aggression (our ongoing issue), going to bed, getting dressed- the
normal day-to-day. His latest thing, however, is that whenever he knows
he’s about to get in trouble or do something he doesn’t want to, he
tells me “I’m so sad; I need a friend (meaning Mom/Dad)!” We feel bad,
but he’s overplayed it now.
Funny: I think the funnier display of this new "friend" idea, is when we met
our friends Erin, Max, and Levi at the park to play. Owen didn't want
to go, and I said "We're going to go see our friends and make new
friends!" As soon as we got there, he ran up to Erin and yelled "I'm
going to make new friends!" I think she had to listen to him repeat it
about 100 times. He also went up to some Spanish speaking family with a
five year old and walked next to them, while mouthing across the
playground to me, that he was making new friends.
