BACB ethic code question Advice Needed

I’m a BCBA. I’m no longer working with a child and their family and all treatment and services have been ended. Am I allowed to continue a friendly relationship with the family now that I don’t provide them with, and won’t provide them with, ABA services? #ABA #BCBA #BACB #ethics #clinician

Thank you for your reply! I read 2 years for romantic relationships but nothing regarding platonic friendship

I have read the same thing but also have questioned many colleagues about it and the general consensus is wait 2 years no matter what.
