[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Through my kids. I'm in my 50s but I have middle school and high schoolers.[/quote] Me too, but it hasn't worked. All the other parents are at least a decade younger than I am. I don't feel like I have that much in common with them. [/quote] I'm 43 and one of my best friends is a mom from my kids school. She is 56. We chat about everything under the sun. We both look to each other for advice. Me on things like making my marriage work. Her on things like how to let her kid be more of a today kid and not raising her like she was in the 60s. I think you start with showing up at school and church events. Meeting your kids friends parents. And then repeatedly seeing them. Ask them to go do something. Ask the mom out for coffee or to a local concert that you were planning to go to. Basically, just ask someone you like to become a part of your life.[/quote]
