Don't play with XX, or you will become a bad boy yourself.

or: You will be ruined/ Don't degrade yourself to play with XX.

国外的家长也会说这么没水平的话吗？

for reference only:

Literal translation: Don't always play with that boy of neighbor, otherwise you will be as bad as him.

Free translation: Stop hanging out with that neighbor boy! You'll be spoiled...

Don't hang out with that kid next door all the time! You will be tainted/stained/rot with him/her...

Somehow I don't think this is how native speakers would put it, but I gotta give them a bad English version to start them off, right?

let me give it a try:

You should not stick with the boy from next door, or you will end up in his shoes.
