Yes, it is very okay to have a boy as a friend when you are 9, just as you have girls who are your friends at this time. Having both boys & girls as your friends helps you understand each other better while you are growing up, Having boys as friends you will learn what they think & how they feel about various things. Then, later on when you have your first BOYFRIEND (that time will need to be talked about between you & your parents-probably when you are a teenager) you will know how to have all kinds of good times, lots of times hanging around in groups of boys & girls, talking, playing games, etc. & because you have known boys as friends first and not rushed into having a BOYFRIEND yet, you will be very happy both before & during your teenage years & after. The reason why is because boys are people who want to be understood too, just as you do. I know this is true because I have many men friends now who were my friends when I was your age & it is lovely to develop a friendship first with anyone, because being friends is a wonderful base to build from. If some of this is hard to understand, show it to your parents or a teacher & I am sure that they will be able to explain it to you.
