[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just moved back to the Bay Area. I became a SAHM in the process. Between being much older than most other parents + being a SAHM (especially one who retired from a big DC career) + not being a believer in the whole "organic/GMO-free/makemyowndiapersfromcottonIgrewintheyard" philosophy = me feeling like a unicorn pretty much all day, every day.

I think the key, OP, is for you to help your kids get involved in activities that they like where they can meet other kids with shared interests. Help them learn to invest in relationships based on commonalities that go deeper than geography and school assignment. Then they won't care what the school clique kids do. [/quote]

Well here in our DC suburb we do actively get kids involved in a bunch of activities, and the kids seem to be making friends though they don’t get invited to play dates much (we invite kids over often). We volunteer st school, we offer to carpool. But We do know the other parents of our kids get together as a group and have the kids have play dates often. We differ from most in that we both work full time out of the house, but not sure if we are doing something wrong or if it’s just the SAHM/WAHM meeting up often while we are off at work and just don’t think to include us?

So west coast would be more inclusive from your experience?[/quote]
