Some parents clamp down hard when it comes to friends. They want to know who the kid is with, what the new friends’ parents do for a living, etc. While it’s fine to be safe with the child, such actions are actually detrimental for the social development of the child.
If you want your child to be wise about the friends that he or she chooses, then you have to inculcate the right values and skills. Don’t do the choosing for your child. Instead of choosing for your child, make sure that your child knows how to select the friends himself. Doing this would make your child more open to the world and to your family.
