If AAP wreaks havoc on your relationships, it wasn't a real relationship to begin with. Be glad. [/quote]

No it is true.  I'm not PP and have one in center, one not.  The parents at the center don't want to be friends or facilitate their children making new friendships once they're in 3rd.  And then you drift from the friends you left behind.  No one talks about it but it sucks. I am considering bringing my DD back to a less challenging environment so she will have the "neighborhood" care back.

At our base new kids are welcomed and almost fought over because everyone wants to meet and get to know them.  At a center you are just a visitor.

I realize this is my experience, but I don't think I"m alone.[/quote]

I understand what you're saying. We walk to base but DC1 will take a bus to the center and I realize I will rarely go there and make friends like the other parents like I do when we are all walking to school in our neighborhood. For that reason I feel "lucky" that DC2 will be at our base in K this fall so I won't be leaving the school entirely. I'm also pretty social and I'm planning to force the other second grade parents going from our base to the center to hang out with me :) [/quote]
