Dear Doctor I have 7 year old daughter and she often play alone. I have observed that she talk to herself while playing . She will mostly be playing pretend games most of the time ( ex : she will be teacher) We are bit worried about her talking alone habit and she is totally engaged in her plying . Is this is something I should be worried about ? Kindly help
