[quote=Anonymous] It would bug me too, especially if my child didn't use to behave like this: I would naturally tend toward blaming the other child, when actually it might not be her at all, but mine! 1. Keep enforcing your rules. 2. TALK to your child, when she's happy, about friendships getting in the way of safety. Go over what safety means: curfew, teen driving, smoking, drugs, alcohol, sexting, boys, learning to say no. Tell her she can call you ANY TIME if she gets into trouble, not questions asked. 3. Consider getting to know the other child and her parents better. As an introvert, that would be the last thing I'd want, but if this friendship really bugged me, that's what I would do. Learn enough to inform your future decisions regarding this child. [/quote]
