The Importance of Knowing Your Child's Friends







It's always important to know who your child is playing with to understand the following:


1. Influence: Your child could be influenced to do things you do not approve of due to peer pressure

2. Backgrounds:  You need to make sure your child is playing with children who have similar backgrounds. Issues of values and beliefs can cause a change in your child if they are not strong enough to stand up for what they believe


3. Interests and common links: Your child's interests may change for the better or worse due their friends



4. Values: It gives you peace of mind to know that your child's friends have the same values



You child's character can change due to her environment. You must always know who they are with and monitor the changes along the way

Till next Monday...be happy
