Kids are going to be weird and use their imagination. They'll pretend to be an NFL player breaking tackles as they run through a crowded school hallway. They'll pretend to be Optimus Prime and pretend to transform into a truck. Or they'll pretend to be iron man blasting bad guys with their lazer palms.

The issue is when your friends have aged out of that behavior and you think it's still cool to Naruto run up to them all the time.

I remember when I was a kid I used to pretend the weirdest stuff. Once I was sitting on a picnic table behind the school and I pretended I was loved and safe.

I did stop pretending like that pretty early though because I was afraid of being seen as weird.

Tangentially related but your comment made me remember that I had the most random daydreams of slaying dragons and shit when I was a kid. And that it's been such a long time since I had any real imaginative thoughts.

Try to have offline days with minimal to no screen time and let your brain be bored :)

I don't see any issue, honestly
