[quote=Anonymous]It has nothing to do w/ private vs public. We have kids at both and truly I don’t initiate play dates. My youngest is the same age as yours but I can barely come up for air with trying to coordinate sports for my oldest 3. I would imagine the families you know are stretched thin, too. If you feel like you haven’t yet found your people amongst the parents, get involved with the school. Volunteer for a few things and see where you click with people. The moms who are not outgoing at our private tend to love doing the book fair or volunteering in library or the uniform closet (vs the outgoing ones who love the gala and other fundraising things). Put your feelers into enough things until you find your crowd. Also at this point you can’t expect to be friends with people just bc your kids are. My kids make their own friends and I make mine. Sometimes there’s overlap but sometimes not and I wouldn’t push it either way. [/quote]
