[quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of me and my best friend back in middle school/high school. We were "best friends forever" from the moment we met and wanted to spend all our time together (and were on the phone when we weren't together!) My parents disliked her and felt she was a bad influence on me. Little did they know, I was actually the real bad influence (little big of a rebellious kid, nothing too crazy). I didn't encourage her to lie, but I did encourage her to disobey quite a bit and often... :) They even forbid me to talk to her for a while. Nothing worked. It's now several decades later and she and I are still close. I think you need to get to know this girl, and if you don't see red flags of a toxic/destructive friendship, set boundaries and expectations for your own child's behavior and hold her to it. Teenagers kinda suck - not looking forward to that stage with my kids...[/quote]
