[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe your kid is the bad influence, here. Stop blaming other kids for your kid's behavior.[/quote]

We did not start having these issues with her until she started spending time more time with this kid, which is what caused me to pay closer attention to their interactions. Since that time and as we’ve had more interactions with the parents, the kid’s parents have made more than a few comments about their kid’s behavioral issues. We just didn’t know in the beginning that the kid was having behavioral problems in school and in other settings. We are plenty hard on our DD about her behavior and I certainly don’t look to blame other people’s kids, which is why we’ve allowed her to continue this friendship. But it is becoming a major problem in our home life now, so it’s enough until my DD can get to a point where she’s less impressionable. [/quote]

Speaking from past experiences wherein I wish I had a do over with this exact situation, end it, end it now.  I did not need to explain why, I should have just done it and regret to this day the influence this kid left on my DD's life.  You as a parent do not need permission to end it.[/quote]
