It is difficult to say about my father. From his stories about his childhood, he seemed to have more friends, but like I said, my parents always talked as if they had more friends than they did. And my dad did have a couple of friends.

My mother is close to her family, but she doesn’t contact them. They contact her. Any friends that she’s had are undoubtedly people who contact her and don’t mind if she never contacts them. So, she probably had childhood friends, but as soon as they’re out of her sight, she seems to forget about them completely. I’m the same way. It’s a real challenge for me to keep friends. My brother is also the same way.
