[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the kid, the mom, and the friends. I've been to lunches where babies/children were a delightful addition. I once held a friend's sweet sleeping baby for the duration and it was bliss (and she actually got to eat and talk). I've also been to lunches where it was impossible to talk because the mom overtook every attempt at conversation by loudly trying to involve her non speaking infant in the exchange ("OH LARLA HELEN HAS A NEW JOB ISN'T THAT GREAT?! BUT YOU WON'T LET MOPMMY GET A JOB WILL YOU BECAUSE YOU CRY IF SHE WALKS AWAY FOR FIVE MINUTES HAHAHA") I personally never took my children because they were crying holy terrors until about age 6. It can be a lonely time, which is why women start to make mom friends and go for walks or park playdates together.[/quote]
