Eric: You know what I really really want Dollie Mommy, I want a friend to play boy games with, please!
Me: Eric, we have been through this already and you know you have to talk to the girls and get their permission.
Eric: But they didn’t get my permission when they all came here!
Me: You did agree on every girl who came to live here! You said you ‘loved’ being the only boy until you and Kisha started fighting.
Eric: Can we let someone adopt Kisha?
Me: NO, she is part of our family. You do know we are running out of space for beds, where would this new boy sleep? Your room is for one!
Eric: We can work it out……...Please with many hugs and kisses, please, please!
Me: You go talk to the girls and if they agree you can look for a friend, ok?
Eric: Oh thank you Dollie Mommy, I’ll go talk to the girls now.
Eric has a lump in his throat but calmly talks to the girls.
