this app is good for kids who need help with:

Planning

Developing a systematic approach for setting and achieving goals.

While there are a host of apps created specifically to help users manage their school and work related obligates, Ketchup is one of the few apps where users can focus strictly on their social lives. Users simply select a friend(s) they want to hang out with by logging in through Facebook. Then they select a broad activity (like drinks or board games) and send the Ketchup request. Until the friend confirms, the activity will remain grey. As soon a user's friends accepts, the request turns red and becomes a contract. Users can view all of their outstanding "ketchups" on the home screen, and even add an event to their default mobile calendar. Ketchup is a great way to keep from losing touch with friends and remain "in the loop" socially.

Self-Awareness

Understanding our own actions, thoughts and feelings. Improving social skills.

Users will find they learn a lot about their friends when using Ketchup. They may even learn a little about their own reliability, too. The more users choose to "flake out" and even write in a reason why they could not honor their plans, they less likely they will be invited to a similar activity in the future. Users must be aware that breaking social commitments can detract from a friendship -- especially on Ketchup. It's important that users make plans with the friends best fit for each activity, which means analyzing the nature of a relationship and determining the best plan for all parties. Sometimes it's better to "pass" on a ketchup request than to agree only to "flake out." Users who have built a strong reputation for keeping plans will continue to receive requests for many future activities.
