[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adding (pp here who meets parents of friends) I usually do it when picking up my kid from their house. I’ll go to the door and introduce myself. Or I’ll find a convenient excuse to take out the trash or walk the dog if I know they are waiting outside ur front to pick up from my house.

If my kid was 16 plus and driving I don’t think I would be doing this as much, but she’s a freshman [/quote]

I have met the parents of all the relationships my kids have been in, but it’s been a combination of knowing them through an activity, seeing them at a school function, or an opportunity like drop off/pick up. I’m happy to introduce myself or have someone come to my door, but it’s an opportunity I take, not a requirement I have.

I’ve also ended up with a parent phone number for each, but this is often been to share homecoming photos or such. Unless I really get to know the parent I’m not texting them. I just looked at my last text to a bf’s parent, it was months ago and it was actually because the bf had left his phone behind and was texting his own mother.[/quote]

Ours are both still in HS and I've likewise met the SOs' parents through [i]previou[/i]s, shared activities. Phone numbers were exchanged mostly for logistics (either as fellow chaperones or as program parents/boosters) and rarely used. I would choose both moms as "friends" if circumstances were different but I'm trying to keep at arms length so when things between our kids go south.....

By college, the answer will be [b][i]no[/i][/b]. Not until there's a ring involved. And that better be awhile.  :P [/quote]
