People who had imaginary friends when you were little: what's your relationship with them now?

Title. I never had one, so I wanna hear about it.

Our child has one. Her name is Kiki and she lives on a farm where she drives her tractors in a village called Plamplams. She speaks also an imaginary language. It seems like she represents experience he lives through vicariously expressing some image he has on how he fits in this world. We as his parents have always encouraged him; it is wonderful how he develops such creative images.
Ask him for me which one of these is more like Kiki, please?
That's adorable. I hope Kiki means a lot to him :)
One day he was going on about Kiki, how she does things in a certain way and I kept him going by say how interesting it was. He then turned to me and asked "You know that Kiki isn't real, right, I made her up?". He doesn’t like lying or being lied to, so within that frame I guess he wanted me to confirm that it was just play.
