Why do you think abused children often have trouble making friends?
2 answers
A child who can reach out to others must be pretty self confident. An abused child usually feels worthless. So the child reasons if his parents don't like him, how could others like him?
Well I think abused children have trouble making friends because all they have in their mind is how they got abused,thinking that people would not like they way he/she acts because they got abused and because they would not feel comfortable around others
