What to Do When You Hate Your Kid's Friends

Sean Grover is a psychotherapist, author, and speaker with 25 years’ experience helping parents fend off nervous breakdowns (including his own). Sean’s most recent parenting book is WHEN KIDS CALL THE SHOTS: How to Seize Control from Your Darling Bully--and Enjoy Parenting Again. It is no secret that who your kid befriends matters a lot. Numerous studies have demonstrated that kids who associate with teenagers who adopt risky behaviors are much more likely to engage in those behaviors themselves. Furthermore, these friend choices can teach you a lot about your own kid. Sean Grover teaches us what to do when we disapprove of our kid’s friends.
