I know it is not 'pc' to disapprove of my daughter's friend (13) but I do and am having difficulty knowing how to handle it.
At first this girl just rubbed me up the wrong way with her over confident strutting but I have since found out that she is sleeping with her boyfriend and drinks.
Whilst I 99% trust my daughter not to do these things, she is very private and doesn't share much with me ( unlike my other daughter!) and so it is hard to know. This girl also seems to be quite possessive and likes exclusive friendships so I am worried that if my daughter sees less of her other friends, her perception of 'normal' and 'what everyone else is doing' will become based on this girl.
In a moment of despair and panic I told my daughter that I wouldn't allow a druggie or shop lifter into my home and as far as I'm concerned sleeping with boys and drinking at 13/14 is immoral, illegal and dangerous so although I can't prevent her seeing her at school, she is not welcome in our house.
my daughter told me I am horrible and judgemental. Maybe I am, but I don't know what else to do, particularly as my daughter is very closed and not a talker.
Have I handled this all wrong and if so, how do I put it right??!
