[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Also, please don’t move here thinking everyone plays together in the neighborhood after school and you’re going on mom walks and going next door to borrow sugar. It is not like that. In fact, I would say you see more of that in D.C. neighborhoods than out here. Like I said life and the people out here can be very homogenous, afraid to speak up regarding local and national/political issues - they can be very insular and not at all cosmopolitan in their views or lifestyle so it can be stifling. [/quote] In my experience kids in lower ES don’t play together in the neighborhood after school because they’re in structured aftercare and parents aren’t home to supervise afterschool play. But as they get to upper ES and MS that changes. There are lots of roving groups of middle schoolers in our neighborhood and my kid did lots of after school play/hanging out in middle school. Because the kids are home and in the neighborhood after school. [/quote]
