[quote=Anonymous]Im not sure that I have ever made a friend that is a parent of my kids friends. I am friendly with lots of them. We chat on the sidelines and at pick up, and sometimes we do stuff together with our kids that we enjoy. But there is not a single person I would call independently of our children. I had lots of friends pre kids, many of whom had kids around the same time. We are friends regardless of our kids but in some instances the kids became friends. I have friends from work and from the sport I play. My point here is don't use kids to make friends. You need to find another way to connect with adults. Neighborhood stuff is a good start, but dont focus it on the kids. Invite other grown ups over for a meal or ask if anyone wants to start walking with you in the evenings or something like that.[/quote]
