Nothing devastates a mother like the influence of the wrong crowd on her child.
She knows her child, she knows him from before he was exposed to those hoodlums! And, Oh! The sway they have over him!!
A child who is easily influenced by others is a child with strong doubts about this own reality.
Few can withstand a society so overwhelming as this one, with its high tech and low ethics.
Of course, if a young man can’t win as himself, he can always become the kids next door, or take on the characteristics of the boys in the neighborhood.
These boys are a liability to society and utterly careless of others, but if he had an overwhelming need to be approved of, he’ll become them.
Now, it you, the parents, fall into the trap of fighting these characteristics in your child, you’ll pay a heavy price – the harmony of your home – and you’ll lose. Force will only further overwhelm him.
What will bail him out is:
* A change of environment
* Helping others
* Learning how to survive in this world
* Good food (organic if you can get it) &
* An education he can be proud of.
With certainty on what he knows and what he can do, no “wrong crowd” can touch him.
