[quote=Anonymous]IME very few people chat at pick up unless they already know each other. Lots of people standing around with their phones. For like the first 8 months of pick up I never talked to anyone, not because I wasn't willing to, but because there was literally no one to talk to (I'm not going to approach someone who is staring at their phone or involved in a conversation with someone else. Then I finally met another parent from my kid's class at a birthday party and after that I'd talk to her, and then through her met some other people, and now it's not awkward -- I talk to people I know when I see them and otherwise I'll bring a book and it's fine. But getting past that first intro was hard. [/quote]
