[quote=Anonymous]I made the mistake of thinking my kid's school was going to be a new horizon of social engagement. For a while it was, and a few of my kid's friends' parents started having a group of us over for parties, etc. Then it all suddenly changed (younger kids started at the school, they found cooler people they wanted to engage, etc.) and we were suddenly on the margins. It's had an effect on our kid since his playdate scene has been mixed up. This is all to say that I'd caution about investing too much in the way of expectations. If some nice parental connection and organic friendship emerges, take it as an unexpected bonus, but don't expect it nor weight down any of the interactions with that hope. [/quote]
