Play

When I was child I liked to play by myself because kids liked to make fun of me because of the way I looked, and because of my weight, so I always would just play with my dogs. I wish I could have had more friends growing up, but that's okay. I have a lot of friends now, but sometimes I wish that they where around when I was growing up. Mildred Parten divided play into different categories which are: unoccupied play, solitary play, onlooker play, parallel play, associative play, and cooperative play. Based on my childhood experiences I fell into the solitary category.
