I would think so because what if their friends are bad? I don't think so. After all, the parents shouldn't judge people by the kid's point of view. Some kids are amazing, but the parents see them as "thugs".
I do not think that they should be able to do this.
Your "bestfriend" should not have to choose between you and anyone. She is able to have as many friends as she would like and if you do not like someone else that she does and hangs around with then you are just going to have to respect that and you can equally spend time with her. If you are a true friend you would not make her have to choose as it is very healthy to have other friends as you should have other friends as well.
I Dont Know Because .. For One They Dont Haveto Play With YOUR Friends But They Dont Want You To Be Friends With Nasty People, SO I Dont Know!!
Of course not. Now stop whining, and listen to your parents.
We all need to spend time with our friends and we need to be able to do this without someone looking over our shoulder.
Rather than parents choosing their children's friends, there should be cooperation between the parents and the child. The parents' part is to help the child learn how to choose good friends. Children need to learn how to form friendships and be a good friend and part of that is being able to choose their own friends. In the early years, parents help children form friendships by the activities they are involved in. A toddler forms friendships at day care, on the playground, and in preschool, generally places the parent chooses for them. But even a toddler can determine which friends are good friends. As the child grows, their world expands and friendships are formed in school, teams, clubs, and other groups. If a parent chooses the child's friends, they may not have any shared interests or anything in common. Children might also feel that they have to be friends just because their parents think so and will resent that pressure. As teenagers, peer pressure becomes a more important part of choosing friends. Parents should not try to protect their children from peer pressure and competition. Instead, parents should help the child learn how to deal with it. If a parent has concerns about a child's friend, it is better to be open about it and to listen to the child's point of view rather than demanding that the child give up the friend.

Yes. With parents supervision but alone if 16 and older or 13 and older it depends how strict the parent is.
Parents should be able to design their babies shouldn't they. What do you think? Put your opinion here

Of course not! our parents rased us
Sure -- in fact, it's not unusual for parents and friends to figure it out before you do. But ultimately, it's up to you!
