I can honestly say that I truly like and enjoy my son's friends. They're a great bunch of genuinely nice and interesting guys.

Good kids! Good friends! Thanks! senekers@comcast.net

PauleyD 5 pts

as they get older, and start the teenage hang out, go crusing phase. I was involved in a rough crowd in my teenage years and I don't want to see my kids go down a similar path.

PauleyD 5 pts

especially the ones that are involved in sports and and academically inclined.

cslmwt 5 pts

So far so good and hoping it will stay that way.

Atreau 5 pts

Friendships now have high turn around rates so there isn't much time to like/unlike the friends before they're no longer friends.

LuckyTJG 5 pts

I like my daughter's friends. They are polite and respectful to me and get along great with my daughter. They have fun together.

icefairy 5 pts

My child is only 2 year old. His friends are mainly my friends' kids. So the answer is yes for now.

Honestly, I just want the best for my kids, so most kids I'm not really into...Not that my kids are better than other people but I just want them to have nice and nurturing friends and I guess that's hard to find...

kamewh 5 pts

My boys are both very young but yes, so far I like their friends!

fouragainsttwo 6 pts

Yes, with most of them. The ones I don't like I make sure we don't see a whole ot of. Right now I can control that more...good luck to me in a few years!

I like all of my children's friends right now. They are all good kids.

ladyt64 5 pts

I like my kids friends except once in awhile they can get on my nerves.

JH33194 5 pts

I like most of them. There are 1 or 2 I don't care for because they like to start stuff (tell people lies about other people), other then that, they are all good kids.

amiedanny 5 pts

I actually do...or I wouldn't let my kid hang out with them. They're good kids with similar values, and I know the parents are bringing them up right. I know I can trust my kid at their house as well.

trippyjanet 5 pts

like my niece's friend..she is way older and too bossy.

susan1215 5 pts

I like my childrens friends, if I didn't I would let them come over to my house

tlannan30 5 pts

I do like my kids friends. When my daughter and her best friend are together it reminds me of me and my best friend growing up.

macmomof3 5 pts

My daughter's friend are all right. They are too young not to like. Most of them are sweet little girls under the age of 6. Some of their mother's are a different story. There's plenty not to like, but for the sake of my child I grin and bear them.

smitch01 5 pts

Yes in general I like most of my kids friends but there are a few that I don't care for.

biogirl 5 pts

Henry is so little that I still get to pick his friends, so I love them all ;)

mommyto 5 pts

For the most part. My girls are still young so their friends are too. It's hard not to like 10 and 6 year olds. I'm sure it will change soon though. lol

amyhd29 5 pts

my son is 6,so so far,but I am sure it will not last forever!

dddiva 5 pts

over the years I've liked most of the girls friends though there have been a couple I've been just as happy that my kids moved on from.

bwsmom 5 pts

Without question, we like her friends. Our daughter has a very level head on her shoulders when it comes to the crowd in which she travels, and we are very grateful for that! She has wonderful friends, both male and female, and we couldn't be happier for her!

Many thanks!!

swisspotluck 5 pts

Mostly yes. But even the ones I like a little less aren't too bad. But, time will tell.

more4momsbuck.com 5 pts

Sometimes they are nice, but it's all part of learning.

susitravl 5 pts

My son has great friends. Our dogs don't like DD's friends, but I do. :)

mogrill 5 pts

yes, her friends are very respectful and sweet.
Thanks for the chance.

jinxy 5 pts

My nephew is only 2. It's hard to not like 2-year-olds!

her5boys 5 pts

My boys are teens and some of their friends I really like and some of them I'm really afraid for my boys to walk out the door with them because they are little stinkers!

schnitzomage 5 pts

so far nothing to be worried about my kid's friends

slehan 5 pts

If my mother didn't like my friends when I was growing up she never showed it. But then I had some really great friends.

caliblonde 5 pts

I do like my of my daughter's friends...there are a few that I can only take so much of, but the majority of them are okay.

There are a few I don't like at all....

kdkdkd 5 pts

Most of them, a few maybe not my choice but they are his and friendship is important.

eswright18 5 pts

I've liked some of my kid's friends. But there have been a few that were just trouble waiting to happen.

willitara 5 pts

Others not so much. I try to keep an open mind and I figure if they are at my house I can keep an eye on what they are up to.
