Friends [Help]

    • I can understand your hesitation. I'm wondering if maybe the parents are very strict, like maybe they're very religious and don't want their kids hanging out with other kids in the neighborhood. It sounds like the boy (who's about your age) might like to hang out with you but possibly isn't allowed to.

      I think you have good ideas. I would approach him if you see him outside (in case the parents won't let you talk to him if you knock on their door and one of the parents answers, like they did the last time you knocked).
      If you don't see him outside, you could possibly take over a pie you baked (or something like that, to "sweeten the deal", :D even though you shouldn't have to. I mean, you're being neighborly and friendly. That should be good enough!)
      If the parents won't let you hang out with the kids, there might be something wrong with the parents and you might be better off just avoiding that whole situation. :/
