“I strongly recommend this program to teachers, professionals and parents as an enjoyable tool that achieves results”
Nigel Latta, Clinical Psychologist, Author & TV Presenter.
This has got to be the best resource I have seen in years. I have 4 children in my class with behavioural problems. MyFriendQuest is ideal because I can give it to my teacher aide to work with these children. The changes have been noticeable- less temper tantrums and better interaction with other kids. Every school needs a resource like MyFriendQuest in their classroom.

Testimonials from Parents
This is an awesome resource. I will be using this with my son for years to come. It will be invaluable when he has times of stress or change in his life.
Mother of eight year old boy with Asperger’s syndrome. Sandy Mitchell. Auckland, New Zealand.
The fantastic thing is my son and I don’t argue any more about how much time he spends on the computer. MyFriendQuest has solved that problem! Now we have a computer game that helps him recognize emotions and develop his social skills.

This game is the best money I have spent on my daughter’s well being. We have been using it for 4 weeks and already she is happier, less anxious and more confident. Thank you Brightmindlabs.
Mother of seven year old daughter with shyness. Mandy Armstrong. Leeds, U.K.
My only complaint is that this game wasn’t available earlier. It would have saved our family so much grief, but now we are really pleased to see the benefits not just for our son but for our family too. Thanks Brightmindlabs for making our home a happier place.
