CAUTION - RANT ALERT !

Woah, what happened to this thread!! I'm asking for perspective when my kids tell me they're lonely, feeling left out as they get invited to few play dates, and I'm see little reciprocity from others to host.... then the conversation turns into a sex centered debate on morality and maturity. It pisses me off that this is where minds go because I'm and SAHD posting, that gender makes a difference in non-sexual situations. Not that I'm ignorant, I know to be a total gentleman and careful to notice anything coming at me too.

I'm definitely NOT, "jonesing for alone time with moms" as someone phrased it. It's heartening to see both side equally represented and the immature sex-obsessed sociapaths are in a minority. It's just more stereotypes, the creepy homewrecker SAHD who can't keep it in his pants, home alone-wives who can resist throwing themselves at the nearest guy, the melodrama of marriages being threatened by the wife having infrequent time with a male... good grief!! I have to assume, those who think like that are immature, have issues, aren't fully grown up or undeveloped people themselves.

Sadly it may be true, that perspective is part of what I have been seeing all these years. While I'm not going to be missing out on spending time with anyone who thinks like that... but I won't accept that is a reason for my kids to be sidelined.

My new goal is host as many play dates as it takes for my kids not to feel excluded.[/quote]

Haha, I'm the PP who posted the "jonesing" remark initially - you know that I was saying it in the context of saying you WERE NOT so jonesing, right? :)[/quote]

Oh yeah - I understood where you were coming from. It's a perfect phrase, I had to re-use it.
