5 yr old son asked what his imaginary friend's name should be. I told him Humphrey. Now bc of his speech issues, he's calling out "Hump Me."

My son wrote a story at school today about his imaginary friend, Wino.

I assume questions about his home life have been raised.

My daughter's imaginary friend, Ishi, died this week. I would ask for a moment of silence, but apparently she rose from the dead today

My son appears to have an imaginary friend, meaning, at three-years-old, he is already more popular than me.

She doesn't have imaginary friends.

She has imaginary enemies.
