Every child has their security blanket. For my son, his security blanket is not a blanket but toys. When he was 2 years old, he likes holding his tortoise wherever he went. He has 8 of them, 2 which is his favorite ones.

Now, he switched from tortoise to fruits toys. He has a banana and a capsicum. He will refuse to give it to anyone or keep it in the house/car. He even sleep holding it, he will bring it to school, to shop or to have dinner. My hubby tried very hard to ask him to keep it in the car. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.

I always wonder what is going through the child’s mind. Why does he need a security blanket?

Hey, if you think hard enough, you can find some relevancy in an adult life. Here are some of the security blankets of an adult/teenager: handphone, digital camera, cash, credit cards, car, comb, handbag, lipsticks, cosmetics….etc…etc.
