Children’s Friendships

Children give much time and attention to their friends and remember them for years afterward. Emotionally disturbed children, however, frequently have difficulties in forming and maintaining these relationships. Extreme conditions, including autism, are commonly marked by the complete absence of friends (Rutter, 1970; Rutter & Garmezy, 1983).
