[quote=Anonymous]I'm starting to feel this too, OP. My kids are 16 and 13 and while I still shuttle them around all over, I don't stay for practices - that was a time I'd get to connect with other parents. And I'm not playing games with them (not often, anyway), not reading to them, not playing with them. At the same time, I've lost touch with the elementary crowd of parents/neighbors. I work full time, but I think it's time, as others have suggested, for me to get some extrovert hobbies. I already do a lot of solitary hobbies like reading, puzzles, solo walks/hikes, play piano, but I'm not getting much adult interaction outside work. I think that's the missing piece. [/quote]
