[quote=Anonymous]I find the quote below interesting. I can't imagine my child only having 3-6 real friends. My kids have at least 20 good friends from school and other school related activities at any year. Yet the writer says they should know more and more adults who don't take care of kids, obviously not the parents then and more than 3-6 of these people. I also find the great need for privacy and solitude above socializing interesting. I've always thought of it as an important part of the day, but not the need for a lot of it. Is any of this taken from any study or just the writer's opinion? "They need to know more and more adults whose main work in life is not taking care of kids. They need some friends their own age, but not dozens of them; two or three, at most half a dozen, is as many real friends as any child can have at one time. Perhaps above all, they need a lot of privacy, solitude, calm times when there's nothing to do. "[/quote]
