Before taking any measure to end your kid’s friendship or confronting your kid, analyse why you do not like your kid’s friend. What is the trigger point, why do you feel anxious or why do you not like them. Dig deeper to find the answer, only then you will be able to come to a solution. Just having a bad feeling won’t help you much.

If it is just about the contrasting personality of your kid and the friend, then ignore it. We all are different individuals and have different ways of dealing with situations. Just because they have different personalities does not mean they are not a good company. As long as it is not affecting your child’s behaviour or their studies, try not to intervene. If the matter is serious then here are some tips to handle the situation.
