[quote=Anonymous]I do think it's possible. I think you can help increase your odds by widening your net a bit. As a PP mentioned, you could volunteer with the PTA and find friends that way. Their kids may not be the same age or gender as yours, but that's OK. Honestly if you hinge it all on your kid being BFFs with someone, what happens if they drift apart? In 2nd grade there was a new girl in my daughter's class. She joined my girl scout troop and her mom initiated hanging out. She and I are close friends, our husbands are close friends, and our daughters are close friends. COVID happened that year and they changed schools, but our relationship/s have survived all of that. The girls had another BFF with a troubled family, and our friends did not pursue a similar kind of relationship with them. Just because your kids are best friends doesn't mean you'll get along as a family. Just keep an open mind and come up with a few potential people you'd like to get to know better and then invite them over for a BBQ.[/quote]
