Kids learn a lot from their parents. . . and they also learn a lot from their friends. How to handle anger; what’s appropriate behavior; how important school is; what kind of future to dream about.
Even when parents do everything right, kids can learn the wrong things from their peers.
That’s why giving kids a caring, responsible adult for a friend is so important. They’ll have a good influence to look up to, live up to, and to try to be like. A Big Brother or Big Sister can connect with a child in a way that’s hard for parents but easy for friends.
This is why Little Brothers and Little Sisters do better in school, are more self-confident, and are less likely to use drugs, alcohol, or violence.
Because you’ve given them the right friend.
