Friends
Fr. Bob Garon, 1974
Friendship is one of the
most important words in any
teenager’s vocabulary. Teenagers
will do just anything to acquire a
real friend. They will sacrifice
much in terms of time, money and
emotional involvement so that they
can experience the joys friendship.
“Why is this so?” Until now
teenagers have led sheltered lives.
Their homes and their parents
have been the center of their lives.
But now they suddenly move out of
childhood into adolescence. They
have just awakened to what it
means to live in a society outside
their immediate family. As they
move out of the tender years, their
greatest desire is to prove
themselves. They want to move out
from under the umbrella of their
family and into the big world that
is full of traps and snares.
Learning how to survive in the
world can be a scary experience.
“This is where friends come
in. They become the teenager’s
bridge from the home to the world
outside. They provide security and
understanding. Security because
the teenager is not alone when he
has friends. Understanding
because they are like him, having
the same problems and going
through the same experiences of
growing into adulthood.
Teenagers have always been
influenced by their friends. Much
of their behavior has been
conditioned by what their friends
think. Very often, misguided
friends have been a terrible
influence on a teenager. Almost
every drug addict started using
drugs because of friends. They
have formed gangs and barkada
because they need security in
numbers and in like thinking.
Some teenagers have run away
from home because of arguments
with their parents about their
friends.
Friends have also been most
influential in making a youngster
 strong and disciplined. Good
friends have greatly helped a
youngster grow in maturity.
“That is why it is so
important that you choose your
friends carefully. You cannot live
without friends. But the kind of
friend you select is going to make a
big difference in your lives. Choose
them well.”

selection?
2. Why do teenagers want to have
friends?
3. Do you agree that friends
strongly influence their peers?
4. What influence do friends have
on their peers?
5. Why is it important for
teenagers to choose their friends
well?
