[quote=Anonymous]I read this thread with a morbid fascination. I have always tried to include and welcome other people without strings or judgments, whether it was when I was a kid in high school asking the lone girl sitting outside if she wanted to join us, or when I chased down all the parents to invite them to join Girl Scouts to make sure it wasn't cliquish like the older troops (by the way, my troop has the loveliest vibe). We have a HHI of 1 million and could certainly afford private school, but I guess I've always intuited that I wouldn't find "my people" there. I don't want to be around people who are concerned with striving, sorting themselves, etc. I just want to be part of a community that values everyone. We recently made some good friends who were new to the area and whose daughter joined our troop. Sure, we already have a nice group of friends but it's always nice "make new friends but keep the old." Surely another friend or two will not cause your entire world to collapse. But then, just being open and wanting to connect with others is a whole different paradigm than getting off on your connections and standing.[/quote]
