Is it really appropriate for parents to force their children to play with other children?

1. It is inappropriate for parents to force their children to play with other children, because some children naturally like to play with other children, but some children are slow to warm up, or like to be quiet and are willing to play by themselves. Your child's unsociable behavior may not be his or her intention. Some children really want to fit in with the group, so they lose themselves and try their best to fit in with the group. Because he is afraid that others will abandon him, he will give in to everything and agree to any request of his companions. He experiences great panic when his companions leave him. Some children may have many friends on the surface, but for the sake of "these friends" they have to worry about the feelings of many people. When they see what games other people are playing, they want to play it. When they see what other children are wearing, they want to wear it. These are all for the sake of being gregarious. Children have long lost themselves in groups, become more independent-minded, and find it difficult to achieve good results in collective life.

2. Parents should understand their children’s unsociable behavior. He didn't do anything wrong, it's just that he wanted to play with himself more. For this child, what hurts him more than being unsociable is that his father does not respect her character and forces him to change things he did not do wrong. Parents are too worried and anxious, thinking that their children will suffer if they grow up not being sociable. In fact, this may not be the case. As long as the child hates social interaction, it is not out of fear, but because he just wants to do what he likes, or he does not like the complicated interpersonal relationships in the crowd and prefers to be alone. Parents don't need to worry too much.

3. Forcing children to make friends is the most common forced communication in life. Just like Manman's mother did to Manman, parents will feel anxious when they find that their children often play alone and don't want to say hello to others. They worry about their children and force them to make friends, but parents never ask why their children don't play with other children and why they like to play alone. Adults often think about problems from their own perspective but ignore their own thoughts. Every child has his own unique personality, every child is unique. Parents should respect their children's choices and let them choose their own way of doing things without any pressure. This is what is best for them.
