[quote=Anonymous]I just want to caution about labeling a kid a "bad influence". . .a kid who has cutting has experienced trauma and likely doesn't have the control they need to manage it in their life. . .This does NOT change the real fact that you may not want you child exposed to it, even second hand. . .but please buckle up. The next few years are going to be hard to navigate well if you label other kids as "good" or "bad". . .it's really not binary. It can sometimes be the kid you would least expect to be involved in some rough stuff. It can sometimes be your kid. . . The suggestion to be the one driving/hosting is a good one - keep your eyes and ears open, and often your mouth shut. . .and foster a strong open relationship with your kid so they feel safe talking to you about everything.[/quote]
