The Boy Need A Friends

We often see, at least in the area near the school in the hours after school, teenage boys huddled together like friends. While adult males, tend to be aloof and not a problem if you do not spend much time with her friends as often as when he was a teenager. Then, what about the boys?


Dr. Michael Handwerk, PhD of child health research institutions in Nebraska, USA, revealed that for boys, friendship is a necessity that can not be negotiable. According Handwerk, a boy basically do not need many friends, as long as he has a friend. Children will be more easily absorbed into the negative things if he did not have any friends.

Friendship provides a way for children to build a relationship with the world outside the family. Through this relationship, the children learn to consider other perspectives, learning to negotiate, tolerance, and learning abilities they need to be able to live in the future.


Encourage boys to be friends
If the children do not have the signs began to establish friendships with their peers, parents can take a role to encourage without forcing yourself to look for the meaning of friendship in life.

* Get up close in the first 24 months of a child's life. By keeping close to the child, he will learn to trust others, without this, he will be afraid of contact.


* Create a child the opportunity to build friendships. Example, make a pact with the parents of the child for a visit to his house and let the child play with his friend, and instead, invite your friends and parents of children to play in your home. The other way, take the child to the playground, help children get acquainted with the child's peers, or include the child in activities that children like activities, such as music lessons or sports.

* Create a training socialize. "How many parents teach their children how to start a friendship is true?" asked Dr. Handwerk. Do not expect the introduction or the ability to start a friendship come naturally. Parents need to be able to teach his son to form a positive friendships and healthy with a train, for example, how to approach a group of group of children. Do not forget to notice how the children to play with their peers. At home, offer your help to begin to train hard to meet if it looks close to their peers.

Build friendships and ability to meet with peers takes considerable practice, and you as a good parent should watch this, because to some extent, friendship for boys to have an influence on his future.
