[quote=Anonymous]Bring these friends into your home regularly and make sure you judge them for yourself rather than some sort of “reputation” heard from gossipy adults. Banning an impulsive kid with no other friends from hanging with his only friends is likely a fools task and honestly pretty cruel besides. Tell him he can only hang out at your house with them for now. Get to know them. Don’t judge them but make sure they know your rules. Have awesome snacks and otherwise a relaxed environment and good video games. It’s my experience that these kinds of kids aren’t bad (after all they are including your son, who apparently is a bit of a school pariah) just poorly supervised and/or struggling with some home problems. Often these are the first kids to engage with me as a parent and be better with my kids when they don’t want to risk the same space of my home. [/quote]
