[quote=Anonymous]I'm more social with other parents that my parents were. Not my parents fault, they were first generation immigrants and settled in neighborhoods where they kind of stood out like a sore thumb. It was definitely not the norm there to have families of different ethnicities around. I don't think my mom was very comfortable hanging out with other moms, and English was also not her first language. They socialized with a few other immigrant families around town but the kids didn't usually attend the same school as me. I fit in better (naturally, I grew up here) and I live in a more diverse neighborhood. I am friendly with all sorts, but more in a way of having a few parent contacts to help out with school questions and carpool. I make small talk at kid parties. I work so I don't have a whole lot of time to socialize. [/quote]
