[quote=Anonymous]Any other kids do this with animals? Like feeling a need for a hug so they become a koala? Or angry so they're a lion? Or need to run so they're a dog or a horse? At times it's cute and fun but at times it's inappropriate or dangerous. It's also confusing to friends who in 5th grade are outgrowing this kind of play. My guess it's a coping strategy to anxiety or big feelings, but like you, OP, it can be worrisome when they don't snap back.[/quote]
