My friend recently moved in with his partner who has a 10 year old son.
Since moving in he's not sure if the boy
Likes him.
He appears happy overall and will chat to him. He doesn't seem sad.
They've known each other a long time but before just met for day trips.
Is there any way to tell if the child has bonded with you or isn't keen on you without them saying anything?
He tells his Mum he likes him but he's worried he's just saying it to make her happy.
