[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My daughter is in HS now but when she was at Maury the moms of her classmates were... something else. It seemed like their entire lives revolved around the school. Most of them were unemployed. They literally met weekly to chime in on the Gala, the Spring Fling, field trips etc.

I always wondered what they were going to do when their kids got older.[/quote

Brooks/Maury mom. Most of these women are no longer in the PTA. There are still some of them at the school and it is funny as they are no longer involved at all. Anything major, like class sizes, they want no part in. They used to have keggers and cliquey parties where you sign-up to drink at their house with their friends. My DH and I went the first year we were at Maury. We both looked at each other and left when they played beer pong or smoked weed. We are so over the Adams Morgan kickball scene of our 20s. There are a group of moms and dads who either WFH or don't work at all who coffee klatch by the flagpole/Brooks sign in the morning. It is so Fing annoying. I am racing to get to my office or on a call and they will still be there for over an hour. Must be nice.[/quote]

When was this?  My son graduated from Maury in 2020.  There were definitely some moms who stayed at home and spent a lot of time volunteering.  It felt mildly cliquish, but I think that was just because they spent time together on the playground after school and at volunteer stuff.  [b]No one was mean, or having keggers or playing beer pong[/b].  TBH, the group of moms I was referring to seemed really overinvolved in their kids' stuff, and a little boring, but not like bad or awful people.[/quote]

You'd be dead wrong, Tons of keggers, back to school blow outs, end of year bashes, corn hole tournaments where streets got closed and people got wasted, ping pong table literally in a front yard with wasted adults playing beer pong. I saw it all.[/quote]
