[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 660221, member: 15473"] So far we are slowly but surely working on the making "Good" friends part of life. I have talked with her and made it clear who I will and will not tolerate. I gave very valid reasons why and she seems to understand. She may still be on the phone with them but no physical contact is happening and to me that is a good thing. Kids who never see each other tend to get bored with one another. New friends are being given the benefit of the doubt until I see or hear something bad enough to warrant a change. Being military I don't have that social circle to help me find out who the bad ones are so I just have to try them out and see how it goes. Thankfully I am very open minded so I tend to give just about anyone a chance. She does too. In the long run I feel like she is learning to listen to our advice but also learning what we will and will not tolerate. I advise against bad friends, I cut off really bad friends. Now on to the plan to find her an activity of some sort so she stays occupied and meets new people. [/QUOTE]
