The Need To Be Alone

There are times when each of us feels the need to be alone, and that includes children. When a child needs to get away from the group. It's often hard for other children to understand why that child doesn't want to be with them. Sometimes a child may just need to know that thoughts and feelings can be kept safe inside. Believe that children who are allowed their times alone are the ones most likely to feel comfortable around other people -- just a the children who know their thought are private are the ones who become most able to share their feelings with the people they love.
