[quote=Anonymous]I’ll be a bit more optimistic, OP. My kids are high school and college aged now but my closest local friends are the ones I met in the k-4 or k-5 years. Many were also SAHMs at the time not all. Almost none are SAHMs anymore. I value their friendship as much as my friends from my hometown and my college friends. I never had/wanted close work friends. No regrets about making our kids friend’s families our friends. In many cases, the kids friend group changed but the parents are still our closest friends. This is obviously very school specific. We were at a small school with lots of active parents. I was also lucky there were planners among my kids friends. The type to host cocktails, or set up a post game pizza party in the park, or host dinner parties. It was soon obvious which families showed up to everything and which never showed up. Good luck OP![/quote]
