[quote=Anonymous]I used to get anxiety at preschool drop off/pick up. Less about the other parents (maybe a little that though because I did feel pressure to fit in and make friends) but also because I was unused to the parent-teacher relationship and always felt awkward talking to the teacher. But in K I suddenly realized “oh, I can just do this quickly and not worry about making friends or impressing anyone.” Like it just took me that long to realize that it just doesn’t matter if I have close friends at my kid’s school or that any of those people think I’m cool. Now I have ZERO anxiety. If I think I might have to wait, I bring a book or listen to a podcast while looking at Instagram. I appreciate the extra me time. I don’t resent or fear or worry about the other parents one way or another. It’s great.[/quote]
