person A: My son went into a youth challenge program. I am hoping that this will help him become better person and give him the discipline that he needs.
person B: Ahh_comma_ is he a troublemaker right now? Most of the time_comma_ it's the friends they hang out with. Young people are easily influenced by the people around them.
person A: It had alot to do with the crowd he was keeping at school. their habits was rubbing off on him. I tried talking to him several times about it but of course with being the mother he acted like I did not know what I was talking about. He is not just horrible but I knew if something did not change it would have gotten worse
person B: Yes_comma_ he needs a firm hand to lead the way out of this kind of behaviours. You need to step up and introduce some strict schedules so he won't have time to do anything bad.
