Tyler having friends

Right now, as I'm typing this, Tyler is talking on the phone with his best friend. They've been in the same class for kindy, 1st, and 2nd. This year Tyler is now at Nathan's school. It's nice that they still keep intouch. BUT.....Nathan is FOLLOWING Tyler around while he talks on the phone. Making comments....as if they were talking to HIM. I keep telling him to stop...leave Ty alone. Nothing works. HE just asked to speak on the phone!!!! Now he's telling them WHAT to talk about!!!

Nathan considers himself to be Tyler's best friend. I'm feeling like this is going to be a problem in the future. HE IS STILL TALKING....AS IF HE IS ON THE PHONE WITH TY AND HIS FRIEND!!!!! Tyler is getting annoyed!!! Gotta go!

I have read this post a couple times without any words of wisdom to give you.

I am not sure how to solve the bigger problem of Tyler enjoying friendships that don't include Nathan but I think the immediate problem of Tyler being able to have phone conversations without interuption could be addressed fairly easily.
