Psychologist opinions on the agency of imaginary friends are actually weirdly reminiscent of Einstein's opinion of singularities.

See, while singularities were mathematically sound, and all of their calculations led to the fact that they must exist, they went against what physicists at the time believed could be possible.

So even when their own studies concluded that something like this must exist in the universe, the physicists rejected the notion. They claimed it wasn't possible even as their own math showed the opposite.

What I find striking about imaginary friend psychology is that there are all of these studies that will show examples of agency in imaginary friends. Then the psychologists will be like, "so here are some explanations for the illusion of independent agency."

Why is the assumption that it's an illusion?

Why is it taken for granted that the imaginary friends do not possess actual agency, and are merely perceived to?

Of course, psychology isn't nearly so cut and dry as physics. That's why it's considered a soft science.

But it does seem like one of those instances where the opinion of researchers contradicts their own findings, and they are clinging on to tradition rather than following where the science leads.

Is everyone starting their day off right? The weather has gotten colder these days. Isn't that why it's not easy to wake up? Everyone looks so tired. Everyone doesn't want to go to work… or school… I know that feeling of wanting to leave work as soon as you go
