At what point in your life is it comfortable to be alone?

I am kept awake at night praying for my son to make friends at his new school, but I sit alone most days doing my work.

I know who my friends are. I know who I can call to grab a beer, see a movie or play racquetball.

But my heart is heavy for my kids to find friends. Friends who take them for who they are, what they believe and who they want to become.

How do we help our kids find friends and instill in them it’s OK to be alone?
