[quote=Anonymous]I agree with you that getting in with a group of moms matters and impacts the kids. wish it didn’t, but at our school it is absolutely the case. But I also think you can make time for older friendships if you value them. It’s hard, but both can and should be balanced. I also think your own use of terminology here is interesting. Mom vs real. In my experience, I have a good group of mom friends but most of them are not who I turn to if I need someone if it is not related to the kids or school. Maybe only 1 out of the group. Eventually the kids grow up and pick their own friends and these moms will likely drift away. So to me, recognizing that, it remains important for me to invest in my “real” friends outside that group. [/quote]
