does you child talk their self

[dlr579]

 I have a very young child and while she is playing she is always talking to her self. I really don't remember talking to my self a child.

Is she an only child? It may be that she is just lonely or she may have a very good imagination and has a pretend friend. I wouldn't worry too much about it yet. Just keep an ear out for what she is talking about and use your own judgment rather you need to intervene or not.

I don't have any children but I am quite young still... and act even younger lol. I remember having lots of imaginary friends when I was little (but my Best imaginary friend's name was Jenny) and I remember my mom asking me why I was always talking to myself. It is completely normal for kids to use their imaginations like that.

No but my spouse does and I heard he has had that little habit since childhood.When I make him mad he will go in the kitchen and I just shake my head as he complains and has a whole conversation with himself.

my son talk to his self when he playing

[CHANEYLAKEGIRL]

yes, my daughter does. She's 18 and it has decreased significantly as she got older. I still catch her doing it once & a while.

I think that's totally normal. When I was little, I would pretend I was talking to other people and my grandmother thought I was talking to myself but I was just playing a game and pretending there were other people there....I knew they weren't really there!

My son has long conversations with hilself when he is playing. Tonight he hurt himself playing tackle football...by himself.

No, but, since I live alone, I sometimes talk to myself.

My son talks to himself when he is playing. He could have a pretend friend or he could just be pretending that other people are there, I'm not sure but I'm not too worried about it. He's little still and I sometimes talk to myself too. I don't have conversations but I make comments especially if I am looking for something. LOL

its totally normal, every kid ive seen does it. my 3 year old niece does it all the time and when we ask her what shes saying she blushes and says "oh im just talking to myself"

I don't have any kids of my own but when I was about 4 or 5 years old I remember talking to myself while I was playing with my toys. I was an only child for 6 years, so imagine the boredom. lol!

[anubabs]

lol...i think all kids talk to themself while playing by themselfs most of the time.

[tanginess]

Before I had my younger brother to talk to, I always talked to myself as a child. Sometimes when I'm alone I talk to myself.

I don't have kids, but when I was a child I used to talk to myself when I played with my toys. I was the only girl with three brothers so I played alone alot
