[quote=Anonymous]Unless it was something like a scout picnic, my parents seldom socialized with families from school or sports, and when they did it was more formal than what we typically do. They might have close friends’ parents sit down in the living room for a chat when dropping off or picking up, but the idea of them going to an end of basketball season party at the house of someone they don’t know well is laughable. They didn’t become cozy with other parents from sports teams or activities. DH and I talk a lot with other parents at games, school events, etc., and would feel negligent if our family was the only one not going to a soccer pizza party or whatever. We have actually have made adult friends through our kids. Strange how much parenting expectations and culture have changed.[/quote]
