(a) More number of friends of your ward can mislead or divert   your ward  from studies to other activities ,because more the number of heads , more will be the brains , more will be the thoughts , more will be the wastage of  time  & more will be the diversion from aim  . Only 1 – 2 friend may be helpful for healthy discussion & fruitful growth but that too under your  sharp  observations.
