[quote=Anonymous]If your kid values these friendships, The best thing you can do is see the good in these kids, like them, be kind to them so they know you are on their team, and be firm about the boundaries that matter. I’d let snack stuff go or just head it off by leaving snacks out for grabs. Focus on back talk and manners. If it were me I’d say “I want you all to have fun but if I overhear unkind language then whoever said it is going to come sit with me for a minute.” My kid included. It is more about teaching the expectations and showing that you follow through - you will not see an instant behavior change. If your kid does not like hanging out with these kids I’d take another approach of having her back and not forcing her to hang out. Kids respond best to loving but firm rules from adults who want them to succeed and believe in their ability to be better.[/quote]
