[quote=Anonymous]Well you.can tell if the children are children you'd want your kids to be friends with by having them over to your house and checking text messages. So that's pretty easy. My house is the hang out house so it's pretty easy for me - I don't care so much about the parents. I know a few of my fourth graders friends parents and that's because we all live in the neighborhood, go to the same activities etc. But I am sure I don't even know half of them. By middle school, its tough. I meet some at back to school nights and parent teacher conferences. I also rely on my kids teachers to let me know about the kids my kids hang around with. I get very good feedback that way. By high school, the only parents I met were the ones of the kids my kids dated. There comes a point where you have to go with your kids judgments - hopefully by that point they are making reasonably good choices. [/quote]
