My oldest, who is now nine, has an awesome imagination. She entertains herself with a pantheon of imaginary friends and doesn't give a shit at all what anybody thinks about that. My favorite is the duck named Pondulious.
Anyway, she asked me several months ago why some kids at school make fun of her for having imaginary friends but they believe in God. She wanted to know what the difference is.
I have yet to come up with a good answer for her. Thank goodness the child is creative and patient.
