[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not cutthroat, but there just aren't ways to meet/connect with other parents in middle school. I don't think this is just WMS, I think it's how MS is. You drop your kid off or they walk or take the bus so you don't get a chance to interact with other parents. I already had mom friends from ES and I just kept up with them. At best, you will meet the parents of your kid's friends if they make new friends in MS. That said, I wasn't active in the PTA, so I bet that's a good way to actually meet people and get more involved. [/quote]

Thank you, this makes a lot of sense.[/quote]

You're welcome. I didn't really interact with parents i didn't know. I didn't find this unwelcoming, but then again I already had friends and wasn't looking for new ones either. I guess it could be perceived as unwelcoming if someone wanted to find a social group. This was very different from ES. We walked to and from school so I met many parents while waiting at pickup and the kids all played together. People seemed eager for friends then, but not in MS. [/quote]
