Thomas spent the past 2 afternoons playing with two boys that live in our neighborhood. On the one hand I think this is great. Thomas had no friends. There was 2 other boys that would play with him from time to time. One boy basically told him, "you are not my best friend...you are (at best )my 3rd or 4Th friend". That really hurt Thomas deeply. The other kid is nice, but 2 years older. They aren't in the same grade or even the same school. During the break at school, Thomas felt so alone. So now he is playing with these other kids. Good, right? Well, today I found out Thomas has been giving them Lego so they would play with him. Buying friends. I said, no more giving away toys. He fell apart. His self worth is just so weak. Please pray for him. He needs a real friend. Someone who will accept Thomas for Thomas. He is a great kid, but he has zero self worth. He needs a real friend as much as food and water! One real and good friend would mean the world to him...but you can not buy a real friend!
