Respuesta :

a. can have both positive and negative

Answer:

Throughout your life you have many opportunities to choose  friends. Positive people with healthy attitudes can support you emotionally,  reinforce your values, and motivate you. For example, if  your friends think education is important, you’re likely to take education  seriously and do well in school. Often, friends encourage  each other to make healthy, responsible decisions. They might  inspire each other to engage in more physical activity or participate  in community service. They can also serve as mutual protectors,  helping each other avoid unsafe  or unhealthy situations. For example,  a friend may encourage you to  walk away from a fight.  Some friends, however, may try  to influence you to participate in  risky activities or behaviors that go  against your values and the values  of your family. In such cases, it’s  probably best to end the relationship.  Healthy relationships are  based on mutual respect and  caring. If a friendship isn’t contributing  to your life in a positive  way, it’s time to reevaluate that  relationship.
