Ungodly Playfellows

“Keep your children as much as may be from ill company, especially of ungodly playfellows. It is one of the greatest dangers for the undoing of children in the world; especially when they are sent to common schools: for there is scarce any of those schools so good, but hath many rude and ungodly ill-taught children in it.”

Richard Baxter, Christian Directory, Part II, Ch. X, Direct. XV.
