“Toxic Friend” Characteristics
Parents, we know that we are the number one influence in our childโs lives. But, when they become young adults, they start to pull away from us and push more into their peer groups.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
We encourage you to have conversations with your children about friendship characteristics. ๐๐จ๐๐๐ฒ, ๐ฅ๐๐ญโ๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ง โ๐๐จ๐ฑ๐ข๐ ๐

๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ฐ๐ด๐ด๐ช๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ & ๐๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ช๐ด๐ฆ ๐๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ณ: This person rarely does what they said they will do, and cannot be depended upon. They can also tell others what you tell them in private.โฃโฃ

We encourage you to talk to your child to see if they have any friends that exhibit theses traits, or if they themselves exhibit any of these traits. ๐๐๐ฏ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐๐ซ so you can reference back to it! ๐
